As you scroll through these photos you will notice Hannah smiling in the majority of them. Hannah-you are so easy to photograph as you are always smiling.  I loved how Ryan told me that he never knew how to smile for pictures until he met Hannah.  Hannah, I think I was showing my pearly whites while taking your picture. You just got that way about you.  Everything about this days was wonderful; you had family, friends, love and laughter. What more do you need?  I could go on about the chemistry the two of you have but I think the photographs speak better than my words.

I had such a great time on this day in June and though it’s been a few weeks since this wedding I hope you can go through these and smile all over again.

These two tied the knot a couple weeks ago at Wildwood in the heat of the day.  Jaime was my most RELAXED bride I have ever photographed-wow, it was so awesome .  Let’ s just say 20 minutes before the ceremony it poured rain for a good 10 minutes and Jaime didn’t freak out.  In fact, it didn’t even seem that she noticed.  It wouldn’t have mattered anyways because the sun came out and dried it all up before the ceremony.  That will definitely be something years from now when they look back and say, remember when?  And smile. And laugh. And remember the love they still have because that’s what matters in the end. Not if it rained or if it shined bright skies. It’s all about the love that they share and will continue to share. You two are a beautiful couple (my country couple) and I wish you many, many blessings on your journey together.

Simply said, Abbey & Shawn’s wedding was a wonderful day all together.  There was so much love, laughter, family and friends that it was hard not to get emotional during the ceremony.  Of course its also hard when the father of the bride had tears even at the rehearsal not to mention coming down the isle and all through the ceremony.  I felt the love for these two to my core.  It was pure joy on the faces of both sets of parents, grandparents and friends and hopefully you see that in this short blog. 

To the bridal party, you were so much fun and to the groomsman who got everyone to skip for the camera, you rock!  Family and friends it was so nice to feel the warmth and kindness from you guys and I loved witnessing all the plain old family love going on.  Finally to Abbey and Shawn, you truely are a beautiful couple on the inside and out.   Your day was not only gorgoeous but what an amazing celebration of your love.  Thank you so much! 

After each wedding we photograph JEM talks about what part made us cry. For Jen it’s usually the first dance that gets her and for me it is almost always the toast (tears flow freely between us and there is no shame). For  Sugeily and Paul it was a beautiful thing to witness the love between the two of them.   It was one of those weddings where the people, close friends and family, were so happy for them that I could have stuck out my hand and touched happiness.  That sounds so cheesy, I know!  But, Sugeily is my dear friend and she doesn’t mind that I describe her wedding in an overly wordy way.   Here you go Mr. and Mrs. Murphy- your sneak peek

 Without further ado, I am so excited to post Lorin and Jason’s wedding portraits from their big day a few weeks ago.  If you follow the blog you will recognize them from their beautiful engagement shoot.  Now you have to know, as a photographer, I have a running list for certain things on a wedding day such as the happiest bride ever (Krista Woodbury, no one has beat you yet:o) and now I have a new item on my list…. happiest groom ever!  Jason was such a happy groom and it was SO MUCH FUN to watch him all day.  You will see by the pictures that he had the biggest open mouth smile the entire day.  It was the best.  There was so much love between this couple and it really made for such a magical day.   Not sure I ever laughed so much at a wedding too!  I want to say a special thanks to “Alan”, Paul Simon and the rest of the crazy bridal party bunch.  You guys were so fun!  Thanks for making me laugh all day!  Lorin and Jason, you are so beautiful together, thank you for all you have done for me and I wish you the very best love and music can bring.
