Kaitlin & Aaron::: I do!


Aaron and Kaitlin are probably the sweetest couple EVER.

Last weekend I have the honor of photographing their wedding. The weather outside was cold and blustery but that didn't damped their spirits one little bit!

We were brave and headed down to the JW Marriott to do some portraits of just the two of them before heading back to the church (Lighthouse Community Church) to meet up with the bridal party and families. The roads were not good and I felt a big ole heap of responsibility driving the bride and groom around! Thank goodness, we made it there and back safely.

Aaron and Kaitlin said the most beautiful vows during their ceremony. Katie (who was second shooting for me that day) and I kept looking at each other with tears in our eyes. Even after the ceremony, we were still all emotional! I am convinced that if everyone in the world who got married said those vows and meant them, there would be very little heartbreak. It was a gorgeous ceremony and it made me reflect on just how blessed I am to have married my best friend.

I loved so many things about this celebration. Obviously, Aaron and Kaitlin but also the original things they incorporated into their day. Like the lemonade and raspberry slushy drink, the desserts that Aaron's mom made instead of cake, the fact that one of their friends made all of the food, and the beautiful painting that hung behind them during the reception.

Aaron & Kaitlin, thank you SO very much for letting me a part of your special day. I had an absolute blast hanging out with you guys, your friends and family. And, I look forward to continuing our friendship even now that your wedding is done! :) I hope you have a great honeymoon!

Enjoy the sneak peak and don't forget the slideshow at the bottom to see a ton more!
