So, I have no one to blame but myself for this super long post. While culling photos for the blog, I couldn’t stop picking out images. I’m all “That one is nice!” or “oooh, I really like this!” and then all of the sudden I have the post that is a total monster! Cue dramatic chipmunk music. But really, I can’t take all the blame. Look at Victoria and Joseph. Look at their stupid faces! Ugh, total cuteness overload. You guys, seriously, don’t ever tone it down. When you have kids, call me. But, I think my camera will explode from the adorableness you two will produce.
So, to say I was excited to photograph this wedding is an understatement. Victoria found me through another fabulous bride (Odalys!) and on our first phone conversation it was like two giggly girls talking instead of a serious esteemed wedding photographer and a discriminating bride. I think maybe I always sound like a giggly girl on the phone. So, we do the engagement shoot and I was just blown away by these two. Joseph, the way you look at Victoria. It’s just a beautiful thing to witness. The wedding was no different. The huge smiles these two had when they saw each other at the church, it was just breathtaking. this is why I do what I do. I will say, I have been very fortunate to have had the opportunity to photograph beautiful people who are genuinely in love. What i am writing right now could really be written for any of my couples.
I love the details of the day. Just sweet little touches. Also, Victoria wore her mother’s wedding dress. When she first told me that was what she was going to do, I just about cried. What a sweet way to honor you mother on your wedding day.
So, I end my ramble with a little excerpt from their wedding program that I absolutely love and believe:
“we hope and pray, whatever your beliefs, and however strong your faith, you walk away today knowing how real love is. It does not exist for only a small few, but it is intended as a gift for all humanity. The only catch is to believe you are deserving of it, because love is what we are all created for.”
Indeed.
This wedding was so sweet, so my work was pretty easy!
