“Hey, Leigh and Barry!” We hear from a familiar voice while we were strolling through the Strip District. I look over my shoulder to see Brittany and Ben, relaxing at a table and grabbing a bite to eat at Roland’s. We had just photographed this couple’s wedding in June, and to see them out and about on a usual day-to-day scenario put a smile on my face. We chatted for a bit, and it reminded me of how well we all click. I remember thinking this same thing when I photographed their engagement session.
Brittany and Ben’s engagement session was actually the last that I photographed right before the pandemic hit. And, by chance, we run into each other frequently! Last summer, I received a text message from Brittany; she and Ben saw me at a distance running around Point State Park! I love bumping into them! We truly have a lot in common, which made it a natural fit for photographing their wedding day.
Speaking of photographing wedding days; two of my past bride/grooms were at Brittany and Ben’s wedding! I photographed Persephone and Phil’s wedding in 2017, and Mary Beth and Nick’s wedding in 2011 (one of my first weddings!) It was so much fun to see them all again; I had to take a picture with all three of these brides (scroll down to the end to see this picture! And the photo bomb in the background!)
I can’t say enough good things about Brittany and Ben. They are genuine, funny, have hearts of pure gold, and are 200% perfect for each other. And, on top of their romance, you can see how naturally they fit together; they are truly best friends.
Enough of my rambling; scroll down to see some of my favorites from Brittany and Ben’s wedding day!
