Jarod & Erica: Married!

Photobucket

Settle-in folks! This is going to be a long one.

Last weekend I was so blessed and excited to photograph Jarod and Erica's wedding. This was my first time photographing a wedding, and it was such and honor to be apart of their lives and document one of the most important memories they will ever have. I had so much fun getting to know this couple and to be apart of their wedding.

Erica was so gorgeous and calm before the wedding

I loved her shoes and bouquet

Jarod and Erica chose to see each other before the wedding, and I most excited for this moment! They were able to see each other alone before the craziness of the rest of the day.

Just look at the look on his face when he sees his beautiful bride for the first time!

Jenny Bishop was second-shooting with me and took lots of shots with the guys while I was with the girls. The bridesmaids were very fun!

I just LOVE this shot of the bridal party. Classic.

Now, I just had to post this next one up because...well, because every time I look at it I laugh and get all warm inside because the look on these cute kid's faces are just so dang cute and classic. I like to call this one, "Cheese & Crackers"

The ceremony was indoors inside of Jarod and Erica's church.

Afterwards, we went outside and braved the very cold weather to grab some more shots of Jarod and Erica. It was so cold that poor Erica had goosebumps all over her arms, and Jenny & I's fingers were so cold that we could hardly move our hands to use our cameras! But, it was definitely worth it!

Erica took a little break from the cold and borrowed Jarod's jacket

Thank you so, so much Jarod & Erica for having me photograph your wedding. You two are a great couple and you both have an amazing future in store. I had so much fun photographing you, and I will always remember you two.

Also, a big thank you to Jenny Bishop for second-shooting with me! You are awesome and I loved hanging out with you and really appreciate all that you have done! Jenny will also have images posted on her blog shortly.

Overall, this was such an amazing day and I am so thankful that I was apart of it. I loved it so much, and can't wait to do more weddings in the future!

The photos turned out so great Lizzie!!! Love the twirling and silhouette shot! Thanks so much for asking me to second shoot with you! I had so much fun and can't wait to shoot more weddings with you in the future. PS...Luckily you can't feel the cold when you're looking at the photos...it was freezing out there! :)
