Erica and Bradley are on their honeymoon in Rome as I write this blog post. They were married at my mother's cabin (Starkey's Cabin) on September 19th accompanied by a close circle of their family and friends. From the very beginning Erica made their devotion to God and their goal of traveling the world as missionaries very clear.

Immediately following the wedding ceremony, Erica and Bradley paused beneath the tall trees for a moment alone with God. Their family kept their distance, respecting this wish and saying their own prayers for the couple as well. It was a quiet, reflective moment that I am thankful for being allowed to photograph.

The signature art theme for Erica and Bradley includes a map of the world, a book on Rome I found while photographing the girls getting ready in the cabin, and an image of prayer. Of course, the photograph of them walking along the road adjacent to the cabin had to be included as well, because "All roads lead to Rome," you know!
