I first met Brianne and John sipping coffee at Starbucks, and distinctly remember how energetic, natural, and real they are. I learned about how they met, what they were planning for their wedding, and we immediately clicked. It was one of those moments where I walked away from our meeting and absolutely loved this couple- their personalities, priorities, and their heart. Trying to put words into how we feel about having been a part of their wedding day is basically impossible. We walked into their wedding day as photographers, and we left feeling like we were forever friends. The second we stepped foot into their getting ready room, we were greeted with warmth from them, their bridal party, and family. “What Leigh needs is priority today!” Brianne said this from the start, because her wedding pictures mean everything to her. Great minds think alike.
As wedding photographers, we get to witness the most amazing day of peoples’ lives. We are privy to seeing, hearing, and experiencing some amazing emotional moments. One of the most beautiful moments I have witnessed at a wedding was when Brianne and John said their wedding vows. There was laughing and crying involved – and for the first time EVER I shed a tear while photographing (and if I cried, imagine how the Brianne/ John/ family/ friends reacted!) Brianne and John had the most heartfelt vows, and my forever takeaway was when Brianne told John that she knew she found love when the word “Home” changed from being at a place, to being with him. Goodness. Tissue, please.
Take a look to see just how beautiful their wedding day was…
