Shooting weddings is much more than just “work” for me. I love all my clients and I honestly feel like a guest when I’m there because I’ve come to know them and be friends with them.

Eric and Katie are such a great couple. I know I sang their praises back when I shot their engagement session… but seriously, I love these two. And with all the emotion surrounding the day, Katie could not have been a more relaxed bride. She was relaxed when the limo didn’t show up on time, she was relaxed when the SPRINKLERS came on right in the middle of the bridal party portraits, and she was relaxed in the last moments before walking down the aisle. She was amazing.

To many, this wedding might just seem like another beautiful day, but to those attending, it was a day full of emotion as well as celebration. Katie’s father lost his battle with cancer just weeks before her day. It was unexpected and so unfair. But Katie and Eric celebrated their day. They celebrated their love… and the embraced what they had worked so hard for. The day was not with out tears, but it was also so full of love and comfort and celebration… and anyone in that church could feel it.

Katie and Eric, you guys are seriously awesome. I am so appreciative that I was able to photograph your wedding and I thank you so much. I hope you had an awesome honeymoon!! Enjoy your pictures!

Pinning a picture of her and her father, close to her heart.

Just beautiful, Katie.

Their first look.

I just couldn’t get enough of this amazing church.

This kid was cracking me up the whole night.
