Mexico – AKA – Paradise… was the setting for this amazing wedding.  The groom is actually my younger brother and the bride, Tara, is now officially my sister!  The wind, the sand, the blue water, the beautiful resort was the perfect place for these two to get hitched! Some of their closest family and friends gathered in Cancun, Mexico to celebrate a wedding weekend… and celebrate we did!!!  The weather was perfect the entire time.  There was a light breeze throughout the weekend excect for during the wedding… it was quite windy during the ceremony and I think you might be able to see that in the images.  In my mind there must have been some kisses being blown from those heavens above!  Or maybe that’s my sappy heart talking… regardless this wedding was so heartfelt and I loved being a part of it as Tim’s sister and also the photographer.

Tim and Tara – Thank you for such an awesome weekend together and all you did for us!  Love you both!

Getting married at the Greek Orthodox church in downtown Toledo? Yes, please.  Following this beautiful couple around all day? Yes, please. Bowties, soft pinks, red shoes and clearly two amazing people?  Why, yes! What a gorgeous church to get married in and JEM’s first time photographing a wedding here. This wedding didn’t disapoint. How could it? Leah and Matt are so clearly in love, their first look says it all. The best part about their first look is that it still didn’t take away that feeling of Matt seeing Leah being walked down the aisle. It’s as if that moment was really the first time he had seen her all day.  The next best thing about having a first look is that it allows for breathe time, as in ‘OK, everyone just breathe.’ hahaha…no, as in, let’s walk not sprint and there isn’t any pressure to speed things up.  Speaking of speeding things up…this gorgeous wedding was over Labor Day weekend and this couple said to take my time with everything as I had a lot on my plate this past Fall. I can’t express my gratitude to you both.
