Happy Anniversary Wendy & Aric!

Two years ago today I had the pleasure of being the photographer for Wendy and Aric. Right from our first consultation meeting I knew we were going to get along great. They were fun and it was almost like we became friends right then. I got a good sense of what type of photography they wanted and the wedding was a blast. At the time I was 4mo pregnant and that was going to be my last wedding before the baby came. Wendy and Aric kept making sure I wasn't over doing it and making sure I ate something so I wouldn't get sick. The wedding went smoothly and was so beautiful.

It was a beautiful fall day, they got married in an old barn that had been turned into a small event center. They had fall decorations. There was One tree left on the property that still had the bright red and orange leafs left as if waiting for their wedding. It provided a great back drop for bridal party poses.

One of the things I LOVED about this couple is they really wanted to get lots of great creative pictures with their bridal party. They allowed plenty of time BEFORE the wedding to do so. The guys were ready quick and we got to have fun doing poses. All the guys had ideas of poses they wanted to try, I love it when the clients suggest posses because it puts a bit of a personal spin on it. One of the things they really wanted was pictures with them wearing sun glasses. FUN!

Of course there were some nice formal shots in there too.

The girls were fun too! The two younger bridesmaids were the brides daughters. All the ladies were so pretty and we had fun working with them too. Although it was more conventional shots for these ladies.

Pictures of just the bride and groom were fun and sweet. The grounds at this location provided lots of natural back drops.

Then we got to combine the two wonderful groups and do some really nice fun group shots. Remember that tree I talked about earlier? Lots of fun!

After that it was time to head in for the ceremony. It was preformed by the brides sister who gave an AWESOME sermon about marriage.

Finally they were husband and wife! The reception was great as well! What a great couple!
Today is their 2nd anniversary!

Happy Anniversary Wendy and Aric! We wish you all the best in your life! Thank you for inviting us to be a part of your special day!
