Love, The Hodges

Co was an anchoring presence on our intimate wedding day. She wasn’t just there to take photos, she was present to witness and document our relationship in a way that felt honest and true to who we are.

When we chose to celebrate with a small, family-only ceremony, there was no question that we wanted Co beside us. She flew to Boston to be there, and we spent the first part of the day as brides making our way through the city together, just the two of us and Co. It was one of the most meaningful days of our lives. What stands out most is that Co’s work is intuitive. She captures connection as it actually happens. Nothing ever felt staged or performative. We never felt like we were “posing” for our wedding. Instead, we were able to stay focused on each other and be fully present while she quietly documented it all. There was a deep sense of ease and understanding in the way she held space for us that made the day feel natural and affirming.

Co was with us from the very start of the morning, moving effortlessly between our rooms as we got ready, scouting the perfect spot for our first look, and setting a calm, unhurried tone for the entire day. She joined us at the courthouse as we finalized our marriage and continued on with us through our private dinner that evening. By the end of the day, she felt like part of the group and someone our families genuinely connected with.

When we saw our photos for the first time, we were overwhelmed with joy and happy tears. Co’s editing is natural and true to the light and color of the day, with a subtle vintage quality that makes the images feel timeless. She captures stories, including the small, often overlooked details within each frame. What was already a deeply special day now lives on as something we can return to again and again and share with generations to come.
