Goals | June 2011
June 1, 2011Wedding | Jessica & Hunter Part II
June 5, 2011Back in February Jessica called me about photographing their surprise wedding in May. She explained everyone thought they were marrying in Italy and then coming home to celebrate with a reception. That actually was the original plan…. but once they learned of all the paperwork & logistics of getting married in Italy, they scrapped the idea and decided to get married just before the majority of the guests arrived. Having only their immediate family & friends present at the ceremony…. then honeymooning in Italy!
Jeremy and I arrived about 45 minuets before the ceremony began…. just in time to photograph Jessica doing some final touches to her makeup & getting into her beautiful Nicole Miller gown and Stewart Weitzman shoes
I truly live for this kind of wedding. Small, sweet, simple, meaningful. No muss, no fuss. Just love. I often have people ask if I was to do my wedding day over, would I do it the same? Yes & no. If I was going to have a “big” wedding again, yes. I’d do it exactly the same, everything was just how I wanted it. But…. honestly, I’d do exactly what Jessica & Hunter did…. celebrate with immediate friends and family in an intimate setting. At the end of the day you’re still married and the people you wanted there, were.
Enough chatter…. on to the photos…..
The AWESOME Magnolia Manor in Warrenton…..
Jessica’s brother walked her down the steps of the house to meet Hunter….
….. Stay tuned for their reception!
