happy birthday Melissa!!!

So yeah she may kill me for writing about her… but I just had to do it!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELISSA!!!

I so wish that I could be there to celebrate your 26th birthday with you (can you believe we’re both 26 now?).  I do hope you have an absolutely amazing day because you deserve it 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

I just want to tell you that you mean the world to me and I am so incredibly thankful that God put us in each others lives 18 years ago.  The past 18 years have been amazing and watching our friendship grow/strengthen/blossom has been fun.  I have loved growing up with you & sharing life with you!!!  It’s funny because we’ve lived away from each other the majority of our friendship, but through multiple moves, going to different colleges, making lots of new friends, me moving half way across the country… you’ve always stood beside me, listened to me, hugged me, and then jumped right back in where we left off, even when we’ve been uber busy.  You are the best friend anyone could ask for, and somehow I got lucky enough to have you as mine.  You are an amazing woman & I feel so blessed and honored to have you in my life.

I love you Melissa, and I CAN’T WAIT to hang out again (we need to figure out when we can do that.. fyi 😉 ).  Enjoy today!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

<3 Kendra

I grew up in a house full of photos. My dad or I when I was old enough, was always behind a camera…family dinners, road trips, Sunday afternoons that probably didn’t seem worth documenting but somehow always were. That’s where I fell in love with this work. And somewhere along the way, I also learned […]

Meredith and J.G. invited their family and friends to the Piermont Cottage, which is part of Old Edwards Inn for brunch and farewells the morning after their wedding day. 
The morning was full stories that were filled with laughter and joy!! It was the perfect way to end an amazing weekend. Venue  | The Farm […]

Meredith and John Grady were married on a beautiful, Friday afternoon in July in Highlands, North Carolina. Meredith began her day at the Farm at Old Edwards Inn, surrounded by so many incredible women in her life. The morning was full of joy, love, and an abundance of happy tears. After Meredith slipped into her […]
