When Zachary and Lyndsee planned a late September wedding, I think they assumed it would have fall weather! But in this very odd warm early fall, their day was 90 degrees, and very warm! But it felt just perfect with their beautiful summery colors, and ended up being an absolutely beautiful day!
I said it before about these two, but they are just a joy to be around. They have been together for so long that there is this beautiful comfort with them. They are rather laid back together, and balance each other perfectly, and I saw that again and again on their wedding day. Zachary was comfortable with the audience and attention, as an outgoing friends-with-everyone type of guy. Lyndsee was more shy and weary- but it wouldn’t have mattered what she did, all eyes were on her as an absolutely beautiful bride! I loved watching them interact with their family and loved ones throughout the day, and loved closely seeing the bond between Lyndsee and her sister Nichole. There were sweet tears, beautiful toasts, and so much pretty pink throughout this day! We began at Lyndsee and Zach’s house!
My super talented friend Angie second shot for me for the second week in a row (and we head to AZ together in a few weeks for a workshop)- I am so grateful for her!! She was with the guys in the AM while I stayed with the ladies. Here comes the bride!! This is one of my favorite local churches to shoot in! I love the brick and wood combo!
These flowers!! True Colors does such an amazing job! Looking good, guys! Gorgeous girls!! I love this shot of Angie’s!! I can see fall beginning to appear in those trees!!!
Lyndsee’s dad delivered the sweetest toast. He reminded all us parents in the room that you never know when the last time you will get to do something with your child is (rock them to sleep, hold their hand in the parking lot, etc), and that if we just knew we would have maybe lived in those moments a bit longer…I could cry just thinking about it! You guys, I just adore you together and LOVED your day! I hope you love these favorites of mine and are enjoying being MARRIED!!
