When Lauryn first asked me to shoot her wedding I was thrilled for several reasons:
1. Lauryn was one of my younger sorority sisters and everyone’s favorite.
2. Lauryn had a Friday wedding, and I love those.
3. I knew she and her fiance Scott, had a spark like no other, and I was ecstatic to document that.
Lauryn and Scott’s special day started off muggy, rainy, and gloomy. I had a feeling I was going to get soaked from the rain, or just drenched with sweat, and sure enough I did. Luckily the historic Davies Manor is less than one mile from where we live, so John, my trusty second shooter and loving hubby ran home and got a change of clothes for us both. You will see several of his lovely images throughout this post. It goes without saying he is the best of the best.
Luckily the sun made an appearance and shined its little heart out all day. Lauryn was just thrilled. Every bride deserves blue skies and sunshine. Lauryn and Scott’s wedding was very much so a DIY wedding, and I am ALL about a DIY bride. Lauryn’s trinkets almost put me in a happy coma. I felt like I was in a Forever 21 full of vintage jars, rustic keepsakes, and precious mementos. When I arrived Lauryn was out walking the grounds with her wonderful MOH Melissa, and let me tell you every bride needs a maid of honor like her. She ran her little heart out the entire day, and had such a great attitude. Hats off to you, Melissa.
Lauryn and Scott decided to keep the tradition alive and not see each other before the ceremony, and even though there ceremony wasn’t until 7:00, we had plenty of dreamy light for their portraits.
Before I get TOO wordy on here, I just wanted to thank Lauryn and Scott once again for the honor of capturing your magical day. You two are God fearing people, and I know that will make for an eternity of happiness.
Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Yackel!
Enjoy!
