It was a remarkable celebration honoring David and Linda’s 50th wedding anniversary. We began the day photographing them at their home and in their beautiful garden, surrounded by blooming flowers, koi fish, and even graced by the presence of their beloved cat, Randy. Afterward, we made our way to the JW Marriott in Bloomington, where close friends and family gathered to celebrate this incredible milestone.

Over the course of fifty years together, David and Linda have built a beautiful legacy. They are the proud parents of seven children and have created a growing family that includes numerous grandchildren and a great-grandchild. The evening was filled with heartfelt conversations, laughter, and touching stories shared through speeches from their children. Guests enjoyed a delicious four-course meal as they came together to honor a marriage marked by love, commitment, faith, and five decades of beautiful memories.
