Fall tends to be a VERY busy time for photographers- family sessions and senior sessions really ramp up around this season, and who can blame them? I absolutely LOVE fall and all the colors. So in the midst of the craziness, I got to spend this one beautiful day at Caley and Crystal’s wedding, photographing some of the most well thought out details and personal touches imaginable. It was BEAUTIFUL, and relaxing, and fun, and yes, a little windy. I emailed Caley the day before and told her not to worry about the 50 degrees and wind that was predicted…she was also going to have sun, and I know from the experience of Michael’s and my wedding day that that EXACT weather was just fine, and it was on their day too. I cannot wait to share these images with you, and they will very much speak for them selves. These women love their families, they LOVE their sweet little nieces, they love their friends, and they love each other. They are so fun to watch interact with each other and these loved ones- there is such a playfulness and a warmth that radiates from them. You have seen a lot of these faces before in other sessions (especially the sweet little girls) and I just can’t keep my camera off this lively family. Caley and Crystal, I am SO thankful that you asked me to photograph your beautiful wedding day- I hope you love these images as much as I do!!
I LOVED all of these palettes!
Aren’t these details AMAZING?? They are all adorable!
Time to get ready!
Beautiful, Caley!!
And ceremony time 🙂 I LOVE this of sweet Amelia…what flower girl wants to follow the rules?!
So much laughter and love 🙂
And Crystal? For someone who doesn’t love getting her picture taken…you photograph BEAUTIFULLY!!!
A few sunset pictures before party time. These rings are GORGEOUS and matching!!
I end with one of my favorites of the night, when they welcomed those little nieces right into the middle of their first dance- loved it! Congrats Crystal and Caley!!!!
