“You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You can also look at a picture for a second and think of it all your life.”

One the most precious moments for me is when you’re able to be a witness of your friend making a milestone in their life: a graduation, a birthday, a promotion, a wedding. Even better, if they trust you to capture those precious moments for them.

Our photographer, Amel, had the honor to witness and capture one of her college friends beautifully tying the knot.

Let’s rewind to four years ago in an ad agency office. Anne was working with her team on a project, and Stevie was working with his team on another project.

Then came the most magical time of the year, Christmas. I do believe that around Christmas time, there are magical dusts flying around the air that create magical moments.

Around Christmas Day, 2013, Stevie’s and Anne’s office held a Christmas party. From her sweet, sweet heart, Anne baked her special homemade brownie bite cookies for Stevie. Since then, love started to sparkle in his heart. It’s not a surprise that after that event, they started dating.

With love still sparkling on Stevie’s heart, this year, on January, on his birthday, Anne did the same thing. She baked him her special homemade brownie bite cookies. I imagine the sparkle was getting stronger and brighter.

On April 29 this year, Stevie and Anne tied the knot. And the cutest thing! Their wedding favors. It’s her brownie bite cookie mix in a jar.

“I do love chocolate cake! And I have a beautiful story on chocolate cake/cookies with Stevie. That's why, for the souvenir, I gave them the ingredients of my chocolate cake. So people can taste the feeling of our love.” Anne explained the reasoning behind their wedding favors.

As captured by her friend, Amel, their wedding day was as sweet and as special as her brownie bite cookies.
