jenna + tyler / orchard ridge farms wedding

This is one of my favorite wedding venues to photograph at, and this only being my second time here! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Orchard Ridge Farms, then you add the most bubbly, laid back and playful couple to the mix and theres nothing I would rather do on a Saturday afternoon. (don’t tell my family)

I met Jenna back in the college years, probably in some extremely funny way involving alcohol and I’ve loved her ever since. Fast forward a few more years and I see her again dorfing it up for the weekend at Elandorf. Fast forward even more and she’s asking me to photograph the biggest day of her life, talk about an honor! I had never met Tyler until the day of and I wondered what kind of guy could match Jenna’s charismatic and hilarious personality. Then bam, I was snapping away at their first look and it was like you could feel the love and perfection radiating from them. I even remember Jenna saying that just being around Tyler made her nerves go away. They compliment each other to a T. I think every guest at the wedding left with full hearts for this couple. The day could not have been any more amazing to kick off the next chapter of their lives together.

laura + coty / gateway building wedding

Kicking off wedding season 2017 with this easy going couple was absolute perfection. There is something so special being chosen to photograph such a momentous day for two people, let alone being allowed to be there when they choose to have a first look before the ceremony. I love witnessing all of those crazy emotions of anxiousness, joy, nervousness all disappear when the bride and groom get that first glimpse of each other just minutes before they say I Do. I know I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again that weddings will never get old to me and yes you will find me shedding a tear at least once during the day. Congrats you two! <3
