Cafe Elliott opened up in summer 2024 inside a repurposed gas station on a street corner in the charming river town of Dayton, KY. Kylie and I went with our dear friends Cass and Lexie for the first time on July 27th, 2024 and we fell in love with the people and the place. It has became Kylie and I's second home, where no matter how much caffeine our weeks demanded to survive, we could meet on the weekends at Elliott to sip our iced lattes and savor our time together which whoever sits across from us. I'm forever indebted to this special place, for Elijah allowing me to make it even the more special proposing to Kylie here, and for sweet Cass and Lexie for handling all the details and decorations.

The first professional couples photos Kylie and I ever got (which she loves to point out were, in fact, free from winning a contest) were in a field of tall grass in fall of 2022, so it was fitting our engagement photos with our wedding photographer Taylor were, too.
