Meet the Canaday's| Part I

When I was a lot younger (maybe age 10?), my cousins moved to Emporia, KS so my uncle could preach at a church. We went to visit them during the summer and I remember it so well! We met a few kids our age, one of which was Shanelle. She is a wonderful person and I'm not just saying that. We went to camp together all through Junior High and High School (a very high drama time for girls) and Shanelle was one of the few that was drama free. We loved Emporia and all of our wonderful friends so much that while I was still in Junior High we wanted to move there just to be closer to our friends :)
I always knew that Shanelle would end up with a great guy, so I was really pleased to meet Daniel. He is gentle and sweet and looks at Shanelle like she's the prettiest thing he's ever seen. Again, I'm not just making stuff up here, if you met them you'd see it! :)
Their wedding day was cold and stormy but it never dampened anyones spirits. Shanelle walked down the aisle to everyone standing and singing "All Creatures" by David Crowder. It was beautiful witnessing how they gave the focus of the day to God. They definitely grasp that marriage is a covenant made before Him and they really honored Him that day. I was teary eyed during most of the ceremony :) Here are a few favorites...










































Part two coming soon...

  3. I love the way you captured the whole wedding party in the fireside room. The arrangement reminds me of an old-fashioned painting. So good. I love them.
