Jennifer & Chris' Wedding! : Revolution Mills Studios

This is the third wedding I've shot at Revolution Mills in less than a month and yet it still turned out different and beautiful. I love the challenge of shooting at the same place and getting different results! It was easy with this wedding. Jennifer & Chris put so much thought and detail into their wedding and making sure their guests had a great time. It was a joy to shoot!

Other good things to mention are :
* Veronica Foster from Behind the Scenes, Inc wedding planning. She was there the entire day and did a fantastic job of coordinating everything and making the wedding run smoothly.
* The bride! Jennifer is a true DIY bride and did floral arrangements, centerpieces, and other details herself. It all looked perfect.









Jennifer was such a calm bride and it really shows through in this photo!





I love the white dahlias in the bridal bouquet from the Farmers Wife florist.







I was so excited that Jennifer wanted to do some portraits on the train tracks. We didn't get to stay out for long but it was still good.









Lookin good, Chris!













I love that Jennifer had both parents walk her down the aisle. It was so sweet, everyone was tearing up!



Jennifer's maid of honor sang a sweet song with musician Gary Mitchell during the ceremony.















The bride and groom had been practicing their first dance and wanted to go over it one more time before the grand entrance.



This gorgeous cake was created by Cakes by Manfred.



Culinary Visions catered some delicious dinner.









I love this guest book that asked for advice for the newlyweds. There were some funny notes from guests.







Jennifer and Chris had Zandra Gomez, a caricature artist, drawing during the reception. The guests loved it! It was so fun to see everyone's reactions to their finished portrait.







The band Walrus kept the dance floor going.











I asked to do some more shots of Jennifer's rings during the reception. This one was her idea! I love the way it turned out.





These guys had the best reaction to their caricature. They laughed for a solid minute before even showing anyone else.





Congratulations Chris & Jennifer!

Kristin + Spence's Wedding

Oh, I can't wait to show you these images. I feel like I've become friends with Kristin, Spence and their families after all of our meetings, the engagement session, and bridal session, so it was super fun to shoot their wedding and get to hang out with everyone again!
We ended up with a gorgeous October afternoon with some beautiful light. It was perfect! The ceremony was so sweet and Anything Music DJ's kept the party pumping at the reception! Now, on to the images...





I love finding little details like this tag stuck in the bouquet. Flowers by Designs North Florist.





Kristin added so many special, personal touches to her bridal ensemble. The picture in the locket at the top is of Kristin's great-grandmother who passed away this year. I love that Kristin chose to honor and remember her by tucking this locket into her bouquet.


The picture on the left is my favorite. The hands in the image belong to Kristin, her mom, and her sister. It's so sweet!















The bride and her girls! They looked so great.





Some of my favorite pictures are of the bride and groom reading notes from each other on the wedding day.











So many Converse shoes!











Alaina stayed at the back and grabbed some images of the bride right as she started coming down the aisle.









This image kept making me tear up while I was editing. The look of pride on Kristin's dad's face is so cute. He is just beaming!







This gorgeous cake came from Ganache Bakery.







The guest book from Spence and Kristin's engagement session turned out great!













Such a model couple, seriously.



The food from CaterFest was delicious!








Kristin's brother played and sang the song for the father-daughter dance.















Congratulations, guys!
