On 11.07.21, I met Jacob & Cailey on a magical New Hope, PA evening, marking the beginning of our friendship. Fast forward to October 13th, 2022, I had the honor of capturing their intimate backyard wedding. Jacob & Cailey’s devotion to each other is evident in every detail of their special day, from their storybook home to the book of poems Jacob wrote for Cailey. Their small, non-traditional wedding was a beautiful testament to their love. Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Wilder.
