Back in May, my little sister and her beau got married, and I got the chance to not only photograph it but to be matron of honor as well. It was quite an experience to be in both roles (can’t get a better spot for photographing the vows when you’re front and center;), but I couldn’t have done it without my sweet husband being super dad with my flower girls and Jenn Travato, my lovely second shooter of Horace and Mae who allowed me to be present in some of the larger moments and to also be on the other side of the camera for once!
Now on to Jess and Greg: Their wedding day was both beautiful and personal, my favorite type to shoot – even if they weren’t family ;). The ceremony location, the arbor, the decorations: all had special meaning. And I have to give props to my sister for all of the DIY projects she did to see her vision for the day come to life (she may just need to be a wedding planner in her off time;) The day of the wedding there was a storm that came right after the ceremony, but if anything it just added a bit of excitement to the day, and it was a real blessing that the rain stopped just in time to get to the airport to create portraits around the plane that held many special memories for Greg and his dad.
So scroll on down to get a glimpse into their sweet day! And to Jess and Greg: as I said so eloquently in the speech (insert crying laughing face emoji here), I love you both and am so excited for all the future holds as you begin your marriage adventure, in Alaska and beyond.
