Kevin & Jennifer :: Married

On the morning of May 14th, it was raining. I was totally bummed because this was Kevin and Jen's wedding day...it just couldn't rain. (It has NEVER rained on one of my bride's big days!) But alas, it did and as I entered the bride's getting ready room, I was greeted by Jen, who was smiling. It just delighted my heart! She had a great attitude, even though she admits she cried when she woke up. But she was a trooper. She was so excited to meet her groom at the end of the isle. And it turned out to be a rather cold day, but we were able to sneak outside for 5 minutes and get some of my favorites of the day...OUTSIDE! Enjoy pictures from Kevin and Jennifer's big day!

A collage of just a few of the details of the day. Also, a huge shout out to Kevin's mother...who made the bride's gorgeous dress. The beads, buttons, everything was hand sewn. Amazing!!

The tradition in Germany is that the first thing a married couple does together is saw through a log. It is actually really tough and the couple has to work hard together.

After the ceremony, we all headed to my favorite place to go when it rains, The Muny. It was cold, rainy, and BUSY, but loveeeed these pictures we got. Totally worth it!

My favorite part of any reception is the first dance. I just love how Kevin looks at her!

I couldnn't have made it through without you! You are such an upbeat photographer and had become a dear friend. I trusted you to get great pics despite the less-than-stellar weather and you did! A million thanks for being there and capturing our very special, once-in-a-lifetime day!
