119 days since our wedding on June 20th, and I still find myself reminiscing about this day and all the little moments that made it so special.

This one in particular will forever have a special place in my heart. Watching my bridesmaids turn around and see me in my wedding dress for the very first time. Their genuine reactions, the tears, the excitement, all of it. 🤍

What makes this moment even more meaningful is that these women aren't just my bridesmaids. They're my aunts, cousins, sisters, and my best friend. Women who have known me through so many different seasons of life, who have watched me grow, and who loved me long before I became Mrs. Loomis.

I don't think I'll ever get tired of looking back on our wedding day. There are so many memories I wish I could relive just one more time, and this is definitely one of them.

Some moments are just too special to experience only once. Thank goodness for videos. 🤍

A little bridal hair moment 🤍🥂

This wedding was extra special to me for so many reasons. Not only was it my first time styling hair for a wedding, but it was also my first experience working with an entire bridal party, bringing multiple visions and different styles to life in one morning.

Going into it, I knew this would be a new experience and an opportunity to challenge myself, learn, and grow as a stylist. But what made it even more special was being surrounded by so many familiar faces. The bride and her bridal party were all close friends and girls I’ve grown up with, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better group to share this first experience with. I never once felt anything but comfortable, supported, and confident in what I was doing. 🥹

And while I wish I had captured a little more of the beautiful hair and all the details, I think it’s safe to say we were all a little too caught up in the excitement, laughter, and celebrating to worry about getting the perfect content. Sometimes the best moments are the ones you’re too busy enjoying to document. 🤍

This experience pushed me creatively, taught me so much, and reminded me why I love what I do. Being trusted to play even a small part in such a meaningful day is something I don’t take lightly.

I’m walking away from this experience feeling inspired, grateful, and excited to continue growing in bridal styling. I’m looking forward to expanding my services and offering wedding updos to future brides and bridal parties.

A huge thank you to these beautiful girls for trusting me, encouraging me, and making my very first wedding experience one I’ll always remember. 🥂✨ taken in Placerville, California by @makeupby.chandler

CHLOE! This one is extra special. 🥹🤍

I’ve had the honor of doing Chloe’s glam for so many special moments throughout her life, but this one truly takes the cake. Our BEST work yet! 👏🏼

There’s something so special about watching someone walk through different chapters of life and getting to be a small part of each one. But getting to glam her as a BRIDE?! Nothing tops that. 🥹💍

Chloe, you always an absolute dream. Cheers to forever! 🤍

Grace & Jordan 🤍 These two are the kind of people who are just as beautiful to know as they are to photograph. I feel so blessed to have captured their day.

They said “I do” at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Gridley, then celebrated surrounded by their favorite people at @honkerbayevents in Oroville. Their entire day felt warm, genuine, and full of so much love.

Such a beautiful beginning for two incredibly kind souls. Cheers to forever!
