Intimate Vow Renewal Celebration | Lavinia + Gims

Together, for the last 10 years, Lavinia and Gims have built a beautiful marriage and life. Their family means everything to them, and it was an honor to see them celebrate and be celebrated this past Sunday.


The afternoon began with final getting ready preparations. Laughter, a few dance moves, and some twirls and spins of the sweetest flower girl.


One of the sweetest moments was their first look. Lavinia was stunning. The way that they looked at each other, you would have never known that they’ve been married for 10 years. It was beautiful!


Daddy here comes our girl, was the sign held by their son before his mom walked down the aisle.


The officiant’s words were expressed with encouragement and love.


Their vows to each other, for another 10 years and counting together, were filled with even more love, joy, and laughter.


They are truly #couplegoals and their friends and family agree.


There were so many magical moments on Sunday afternoon, and their day could not have been more perfect as they were surrounded by love from family and friends physically present with them and those from afar who got to be on the best Zoom call of 2020.


All Zoom calls should include dancing!


After the ceremony, guests were greeted by cocktail time and dinner just before sunset in an elegant, warm, and inviting outdoor space. There was so much heart and love poured into the decor by Lavinia’s vision and it was all impeccably designed by Erica, O Luxe Designs.


A family dance entrance, a first dance with the lovely couple, toasts, a fun cake cutting, conversations, and laughter filled the atmosphere with the afternoon sunlight pouring in.


Cheers to 10 Years, Lavinia and Junior! The joy on your special day was amazing! You two are truly couple goals, and I am so happy for you and your sweet family! Thank you for the honor to be part of your special day. Forever cheering for you! xo, Shawon

This post reflects a season when I was photographing weddings—but today, my work is fully centered on branding photography and helping women entrepreneurs show up with clarity, confidence, and purpose.


Through my workshops, retreats, and in-studio experiences, I help you feel put together, on brand, and confident every time you show up for your business—whether that’s online, in a room, or in front of the camera.


If you’re ready to be seen, to be known for what you do, and to show up in a way that truly reflects who you are… I’d love to support you.
