Lafayette Indiana Wedding | Tawnah and Josh

Tawnah and Josh got married one day before my own wedding anniversary. I thought about taking the weekend off, and not booking any weddings, but as soon as I received Tawnah’s initial inquiry, which detailed hers and Josh’s love story, I knew I had to work with them. These two have the most beautiful relationship. I knew right away that Tawnah and Josh’s wedding would be one of my favorites, and I was so right!

Josh was diagnosed with cancer a year before their wedding. They had to change their wedding date and plans around so many times to accommodate his treatment. Luckily we was on a break from chemo in time for their wedding. Tawnah had two children from a previous relationship, but Josh has been a dad to them for the past 4 years that he and Tawnah had been together. He even referred to them as his son and daughter, and they are just the sweetest little family. Even though these two had been through so much, they are two of the sweetest and kindest people I’ve ever met. Their wedding day was so emotional and joyful, and I was so happy to celebrate with them.

Although their wedding day was a beautiful sunny day, it was 98 degrees! In May! I was so thankful that these two braved the heat with me for as long as they did in order to get beautiful outdoor photos. They also made time for sunset photos later in the evening when it was a little but cooler. I’m so glad that they did, because these sunset photos are some of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken.

Enjoy a few of my favorite photos from Tawnah and Josh’s beautiful Lafayette Wedding.
