Samantha & Andrew... got married!
It's official. I love photographing weddings so much that it has turned me into possibly the world's biggest sappy romantic ever! And I find it absolutely impossible to make short blog posts. There are just too many wonderful things.
Samantha & Andrew kindly invited me to Iowa in very, very chilly December to photograph their beautiful day together and I absolutely fell in love with them and their families. I have always said that the Midwest is like nowhere else. The incredible warmth and love with which these folks approach everything always gives me faith in humanity.
I felt like family while I was there... and what an amazing family. It felt like everyone came out of the woodwork (in their parkas and mittens) to celebrate with Samantha & Andrew. And the love pouring in around them shines in their smiles.
Congratulations! I wish you a lifetime of joy. Thank you for inviting me to be there to capture the beginning of your new family...
Paige, that second image is absolutely incredible. I can hear the giggling and feel the excitement...amazing! :)
