I walked into the tent, warm already from the 88 degree mid October day, and was absolutely blown away before it even began.   One look at that top image and you will see why– this wedding could not have been more aesthetically beautiful in any way!  I was excited to photograph a wedding at the beautiful Sheedy Shores Winery after shooting a styled shoot there a few months ago and it absolutely did not disappoint.  But even more so, I was SO happy to work with Hannah from Plan Events & Design again! She blows me away every time!  See the last project we worked on together here!

But this wedding? It was just stunning.  Jessica and Brian impressed me at their engagement session in the spring, but this was just a whole other level!  We spent the first hour in the getting ready suite, the girls just enjoying each other’s company (and Jessica’s sweet mama doing some much needed sewing on Jessica’s dress!).  There was so much laughter and fun, and so much to photograph!  From matching robes to hangars to just about the most lovely dress ever, it was so dreamy to photograph, just like the reception space.  But the overall effect of the day– family, friends, a gorgeous venue, dreamy light, lush florals…it just all came together so perfectly. It was elegance and glamour…It was a labor of love from so many people, all to watch Jessica and Brian say “I do” to forever, to joining their families, to always choosing each other.

See what Michael did with the table numbers there…?! 😉 Jessica had the paparazzi on her all day and was just so comfortable regardless– we joked that it was like she had practice with 4 cameras constantly trained on her! Brian teased that it was her dream life 😉 Ladies…take note! Ribbons on bouquets….it is getting it’s own blog post soon because I always think it is the perfect added touch! Beauties! Michael’s angle! I just cannot get over these! Jessica, you are bridal perfection!!!
Love these light suits! I have so many new favorites!  This light!!! Michael’s shot on the left and I love  it! Such a gorgeous venue! And these details…..all the heart eyes! Jessica and Brian, I hope you are by the pool in Jamaica reliving your GORGEOUS day!!! We are so thrilled for you and so excited for all that comes next!
