A Summer Wedding at Stonebridge Country Club: Mary & Cale

Wedding

Getting to be there to capture Mary & Cale’s wedding this past weekend was truly special. Not only is this couple a dynamic duo, but they were surrounded by a team of friends who love and support this incredible couple so, so well. : )

While there were so many sweet parts of Mary & Cale’s wedding day, I wanted to share just three. A Wedding Wednesday tradition…

#3. One of my favorite parts of being a wedding photographer is the chance to be creative each weekend. This past weekend, Mary & Cale had a beautiful seating chart with their names and wedding date on a mirror.

As soon as Erin and I saw it, we knew we had to use it at the end of the night. : ) The shots we got with Mary & Cale right before we left are some of my favorite shots of the evening. THANK YOU Mary & Cale for trusting us with this unique idea! (Oh! And don’t forget to scroll to check out the shots!)

#2. The personal vows that Mary & Cale shared with each other right after their first look. This is something more and more of our couples are doing and I just LOVE it! The genuine emotion as your person shares their love is truly special and I’m so grateful we got to capture this for Mary & Cale.

#1. The THREE first kisses during Mary & Cale’s wedding ceremony! These two are totally head over heals and they just couldn’t help themselves! They shared a first kiss after their vows, after they lite their unity candle and then again at the end of their wedding ceremony. Guests loved it. : )

Mary & Cale, thank you so much for having us. Thanks for trusting us to capture your big day and for trusting us with our goofy ideas. I just love all the fun shots we got together!
