Jessica + Ed were surrounded by so many family and friends, who love them dearly, as they became husband and wife. They both left me speechless at many points throughout their wedding day. Jessica decided to forgo a ‘first look’ with Ed, and instead had a first look with her father – such a sweet idea! To see the look of pride on her dad’s face was incredibly touching. And forgoing pre-ceremony time with Ed paid off in seeing Ed’s look as his stunning bride walked down the aisle towards him.
After spending the day with them back in May, I knew they were immensely in love and over-the-moon excited to become husband and wife. During their reception at the ACCA Temple, I so enjoyed learning from their friends and family just how wonderful of a friend/sister/brother/daughter/son they are during the touching speeches. This was just the icing on the cake for me, as were their cute details and personalized touches – homemade jam by her sister for guest favors, wooden boxes to hold the gorgeous flowers for her centerpieces, and cookies and homemade desserts from family recipes for guests to enjoy…AHHH-MAZING!) And spending time with them on the grounds of Union Presbyterian Seminary lead to some seriously stunning bride and groom portraits of them – their first images as husband and wife!
I wish you two a lifetime of happiness and know that you will have it, after witnessing the beauty and love that remained the center of your wedding day! A huge thank you to the lovely Liz Reese of Liz Reese Photography second shooting with me! You were SO wonderful to work with – you have such a positive attitude, are very talented, and are just an all around great person! I can’t wait to do it again soon!
