July is Disability Pride Month, and I’ve never been more proud of anything than I am of how Dillen has adapted since becoming an amputee after a traumatic bike accident. He works harder than anyone I know to make his days as good as possible under circumstances he never imagined for his life. So this is a celebration of my love <3

Early June is an odd time to be in the mountains in Washington state—the peaks are still inaccessible & covered in snow, ski season has passed but summer hiking season hasn’t quite started—and the result is a quiet atmosphere with near total privacy! If you’re flexible to account for transition season weather, June in the mountains is truly remarkable.

This elopement in Lone Pine, California began began before sunrise with C & E getting dressed by the light of their Tacoma’s headlamps. Then, as alpenglow hit Mt. Whitney they said their vows.
