Love this silhouette picture in the vault.

This picture is one of my favorites of the session because of how small they look in this large room and how she is just holding on to him so tightly. LOVE IT!

She will be a gorgeous bride!

Favorite of the day! I feel like their personalities shine through in this picture.

Talk about perfect timing! The wind started up at just the right moment. It blew just perfectly on her hair to get some great movement in this picture...I am definitely digging it!

Jake & Natalie's Wedding Day!

Jake and Natalie are an awesome couple! I absolutely loved shooting this wedding, despite the HOT weather...remember those hot, crazy heat indexed days of over 100%'s. Check out some of their pictures from their beautiful wedding day!

(ALSO, I will have a new post every day for a while....soon to come: Natalie's family session, Katie and Jackson's Engagement, Megan and Ryan's Engagement, and Addie's ONE! KEEP CHECKING BACK!!!!)

Natlalie looked perfect...the make-up artist was amazing. She used air brushing, too, which proved to be flawless despite the heat.

Here is a great shot by my great assistant, Jake. While I was with the girls getting ready, Jake was getting shots of Jake with his guys.

A special touch of the wedding, they did sand instead of a unity candle.

Natalie dancing with her uncle. Alright, let's back up. When I talked to Natalie about doing her wedding photography, her father and grandmother were in the hospital...we needed to reschedule our meeting and decided to wait till life settled down. Then, I got word that they were both doing well and at home. Sadly, not long after this, Natalie's father passed away. This was a very, very hard situation. My heart broke for her loss. So, on her wedding day, they had a memory table and made his memory part of the day...part of that was dancing with his brother, her uncle.

PARTY!

Jake and Natalie, I had a great time shooting your wedding...have a happy married life!!!

Rich & Jessie's Wedding Day

Rich and Jessie are married! I had such a great time shooting this wedding with my awesome assistant, Rebecca. As soon as the wedding party jumped out of the party bus, I knew it was going to be a great day....because of their shoes! As you can tell, they had a great style and for me, that made this wedding even more fun to shoot! ENJOY the styliciousness of this wedding!!!! '

This was such a fun group of people to work with. And one of the bridesmaids had already been a bridesmaid in another one of my weddings...I love seeing familiar faces! WINK!

At the wedding, the mood was happy, yet totally focused on a marriage focused on God. I love how her veil covers her face as they pray.

But at the reception..........kick off your shoes and PARTY!!! IT was a GREAT reception.

During the toast (and the ceremony) there were interpretors for the deaf. Jessie works with the deaf. It was an amazing experience!
