My sister’s wedding! I was the Matron of Honor – wedding planner – photographer – all around WE NEED THIS girl!
I tend to take on too many things – I am a firm believer in “if you want it done right – DO IT YOURSELF”.
Friday night was the rehearsal and the intended evening to decorate – but it rained and blew all night – we stood out in the sprinkling for the rehearsal really quick and then gathered back inside for burgers and dogs!
Samm has THE WORST LUCK on the face of the planet – and she KNEW it was going to rain on her wedding day – I kept telling her it was going to be PERFECT!
We woke up Saturday morning to misty, foggy, chilly weather – but NO RAIN!
All day we prayed that God would keep us in a snow globe – NO RAIN – we didn’t have much sunshine – but I like shooting on cloudy days!
The wedding was gorgeous – I am STILL exhausted – and I can’t wait for her TRASH THE DRESS in NYC later in October!
BEAUTIFUL!
I LOVE how tan she makes me look!
My cousin Vanessa & I – I should mention that Aunt L was the AWESOME photog behind most of the photos that I am in!
Amanda – one of Samm’s friends at work is on the far L then our cousin Heather – Samm – me – Heather’s mom LuAnn and Luann’s youngest daughter Vanessa!
Samm was really nervous about her bouquet – we weren’t sure if the explanation we gave to the florist would come out the way she wanted – but it turned out so BEAUTIFUL!
I really thought that “bald” guy on the L was cute!
Our cousin Zach and his nephew Darrell – pretty much describes both of their moods the entire day …
Mom is trying to put Samm’s cowboy boots on – which I neglected to get a picture of – even though it was on my mental checklist!
Please note – this is BEFORE the wedding even began!
LOOK AT THAT POUT! This is my friend Johna’s sweet little girl – she was so confused!
All better – for a minute!
I LOVE that shot of Xavier waiting for Samm! GREAT JOB AUNT L!
The picture that describes our relationship!
She will probably kill me for posting this – but look at that RIDICULOUSLY happy smile!
Our brother Derek and cousin Megan performed the ceremony – it was BEAUTIFUL!
Our parents are SO HAPPY that there are no more weddings to be planned!
The whole family – minus Derek’s wife Jessica – she couldn’t get time off work to come up (insert sad face).
Thank you PM for getting this shot!
Holly Campbell made this cake – SHE IS AMAZING! Samm nearly cried when she had to cut it!
CHUBBY SWEETNESS!
Derek is a cowboy deep down – don’t let him fool ya!
There are so many more images in the GALLERY and then so many more that I had to leave out – I could have posted them all!
Thank you Jesus for keeping us in that snow globe – it rained all around us – but not on my parents property!
Thank you PM – my wonderful in-laws – Johna & Macy – Bwyn and her fam – Megan & BJ & Jessup – Holly & Amy – for the trek you made to attend! It meant so much!
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO CAME and helped with ANYTHING and EVERYTHING!
Congrats baby sis and X!
