Just the coolest bride ever ✨

The cutest couple ever gets married this weekend 🎉 #letsdothis #🐱 #taylordanephotography #tdanesfamouscouple

Print day is the best day 💕 I went to a past clients home the other day for a shoot and saw their prints ALL OVER AND I LOVED IT. #printyourphotos #itsimportant #taylordanephotography

Today’s frigid weather is making me miss our perfect beach weekend, filled with sunshine, fresh seafood and porch hangs. Now I’m going to go look for homes with a porch 🏡 #needaporchinmylife

The guy who literally wakes up looking like this, is good at pretty much everything and puts up with me every day. He’s the real MVP. Love you forever, @zakarigrater ❤️ #marriedamodel

Happy Monday, lovers 💕

I got to be a normal 20+ year old this weekend & go on a bachelorette trip to celebrate one of my besties! We had so much fun. Feeling extra grateful this beautiful Monday for both a wonderful job AND work free weekends to celebrate loved ones! #taylordanephotography

See those blackberries? Callan worked at the farm where they were grown *cue the heart flutters*. Make your wedding represent you as a couple, not the people you see online 💕 #taylordanephotography

Hello friends & followers, it’s me “tdane” (what people call me when they meet me for the first time 😂). I recently discovered I am a Type 2 on the Enneagram scale, which has been super fun to read about. I turned 25 a few weeks ago & almost every gift I received was for relaxation. Ok people, I get it, I need to relax more 🙄. I feel most like myself when holding a camera. That’s all I’ve got for today. I hate how much I just said “i” but what else do you talk about with a picture of just yourself? #thisisgettingawkward #okbye

It is truly a gift to be able to work with people who’s visions align with yours to create something really special. One of my favorite bouquets of all time that reflected sweet Callan’s style & personality. 🌸: @beksleedesigns #taylordanephotography

“When I look at a wedding photograph I ask myself, 'Do I believe it?' Is it specific to this couple, this moment, this place? The key is that the emotions of the moment should come from the couple, rather than from the photographer. Let the subject feel the weight of the moment. It is their wedding after all and we are just guests.” @johndolanphotog -
Lately I have been leaning more into the "why" of everything I do, especially my job. Feeling so inspired by so many different photographers words and art. This quote by John gave me chills the first time I read it. THAT is what I want to be on a wedding day. I want to curate a gallery that feels the weight of each moment. That carries that moment through a lifetime. #fridaythoughts #goodfriday #taylordanephotography

I promise I am getting back to my regularly scheduled program of weddings and flower posts 😜 #taylordanephotography

I call this JOY ✨ #taylordanephotography

Laura, you are absolutely beautiful. Thank you for letting me capture a few sweet moments of your life. 💕 #taylordanephotography #maternity #motherhood

LOL THIS IS SO US. Love ya forever, @zakarigrater. You’re the weirdest, most wonderful human in the world.

It’s wedding week for the giddiest of people! Cant wait to see you guys ❤️ #taylordanephotography

Feeling all sorts of thankful for a lot of reasons ❤️ Biked to my fav coffee shop every morning, ate lots of blackened fish (best stuff ever) and spent some QT with my favorite dude. Back home feeling refreshed and oh so happy!

IG husband took this photo ft. my new $5 hat 🌴👒 #bestlife

All the inspiration 🌱

Day-dreaming about living in a house like this with a porch & all the golden doodles we can find 🐶
