for the wildely in LOVE

Hey there

we are Sarah + Isaac Grassel
wild(e)ly in love catholic couple 

Our story began almost 10 years ago. It was not like the movies, but it was definitely a little expected. A little nerdy, we met through a college D&D group. Over the first year of our relationship, Isaac invited Sarah to go to mass with him, week after week, and eventually, our faith grew alongside our relationship and is now the root foundation of our growing family. We were married in 2020 at the Black Hills State University Newman Center, welcomed our oldest son in 2021, began foster care in 2024, and are rolling with life praying to help each other get to heaven while raising our little saints-to-be. 

"Marriage is to help married people sanctify themselves and others."

St Josemaria Escriva

Saint Veronica, Pray for Us

When Sarah joined the Catholic Church in 2019, she chose St. Veronica as her confirmation saint. Veronica's courage to step forward in love and compassion has always inspired her—but learning that she’s also the patron saint of photographers felt like God’s gentle confirmation of the path Sarah felt called toward. For Sarah, it’s more than inspiration; it’s a reminder that her work with a camera is a way of honoring His presence in the people we meet along the way.

Saint Sebastian, Pray for Us

Isaac was confirmed in middle school as a "cradle Catholic" and chose St. Sebastian as his saint. Known for his strength, perseverance, and unshakable faith under trial, St. Sebastian has been a quiet but steady inspiration for him. His example reminds Isaac to live boldly in his faith, trusting God even when the path feels challenging.
