I was blessed to be able to photograph Dennis and Marthanne on their 45th Anniversary. I just love seeing and being around beautiful, older couples who are so in love with each other and who have taken their commitment seriously! I find it quite inspiring and I love being able to photograph such a strong, deep love between two people.
Dennis and Marthanne renewed their vows in their backyard surrounded by their family and friends on August 23rd. There is a different sort of sweetness and depth in a Renewal of Vows ceremony than in a wedding because the love and commitment has been tested and tried throughout the last 45 years and has grown stronger instead of weaker. It was such a blessing to see Dennis and Marthanne who, 45 years from their wedding day, are even more passionately in love than they were 45 years ago when they began this journey together.
The ceremony was filled with tears and laughter, stories of years past and their pledges for the years to come.
Enjoy your glimpse into their day!
The above photo is one I took of a photo they had out from their wedding day and below is Dennis and Marthanne now.

You do such beautiful work. I should have had to try to get a decent shot of me before you left town, but too late for that now. Besides, I don’t think I could possibly afford you! Love you girl!
These turned out so well!! I absolutely love them
Oh Katelyn…I feel so blessed to have had you photograph that wonderfully poignant day. You are a true, true talent!!!! I’m amazed as I look at the pictures how they captured that day better than I would have ever imagined!
Dear Katelyn,
We have watched your photos, over and over today. They are truly amazing…You have done such an amazing job of capturing
the importance and magic of that day. We feel truly blessed
that Christin selected you for our most important of days.
Thank you for all of the great comments.
Blessings…Marthanne
