Georgia lovers Sam and Nicky journeyed down to the heart of the Southwest to make their love official on one of the snowiest, yet most enchanting late spring days of all. To soak up their love, these hunnies adventured around Santa Fe and got to discover just how magical our little home state can be.
Even though Nicky and Sam are beyond perfect for one another, their love story took several twists before arriving at its incredibly sweet ending. These angels first met during grad school 15 years ago and were madly in love with each other. However, the universe had other plans for these cuties and they parted ways to pursue their own careers. Around 12 years later, Sam was still on Nicky’s mind and after a quick dive into Google, Nicky discovered that Sam lived in the town right next to her (a true sign from the heavens as neither of these babes are originally from Georgia) leading her to make the first move. During their first date after a decade of not seeing each, Nicky and Sam realized that it felt like no time had passed at all and they finally knew that they really were meant for each other (truly a cinematic moment for these babes).
Initially, Sam and Nicky planned on just visiting Santa Fe for a mini vacation, but after seeing how dreamy Inn of the Five Graces can be in photos, they decided to have us capture their love before they sealed the deal. The unexpected snowfall followed by blue skies was truly a treat for these Southern cuties and our afternoon with them was nothing short of an early spring daydream. Seeing the way these two understand and love each other reminded us of how amazing it is to find that once in lifetime kind of love.
Cheers to falling in love over and over Nicky + Sam, we’re forever your biggest fans!
