Wedding:: Mary Beth and Jonathan

I had the privilege of photographing the wedding of Mary Beth and Jonathan last weekend. It was a beautiful event. It was a short, sweet ceremony filled with lots of love and laughter from friends and family.

As I photograph weddings I have the opportunity to step into my clients lives, into a very special and personal occasion. I feel so privileged to have this bird's eye view into their lives. And as I watch them and document these special occasions I get to know them a bit. I get to know their families and I witness the love that is exchanged. My heart warms as I observe these exchanges. Often I'm carried back in my thoughts to my own family and fond memories. I watch as Daddies and Grandpas dance the first dance with their "little girl" and as if that alone is not enough, they always play a song that yanks at your heart strings so I literally have to choke back the tears as my eyes well up so that I can see clearly to capture the moment.

All of this holds true for what I witnessed of Mary Beth and Jonathan and their beautiful families who have now become one. And the best part of all that I witnessed on their special day was the love and interactions of Mary Beth and Jonathan with one little girl and one little boy, who it's obvious, they both love so much. You have a beautiful family you two!! It warmed my heart to be a part of your special day. Thank you for the privilege to serve you! I pray many, many blessings on your family and the years to come.
