I had never shot at the Edward Dean Museum before, but was surprised by this little gem of a venue – Cody and Cassie did well with choosing this awesome place. I was thrilled to shoot most of the romantic and family pictures before the wedding instead of the more traditional “after the ceremony rush” to find important people for the pictures. This was part of the reason Cody & Cassie decided to see each other before the wedding. Although it may not sound all that appealing, shooting all the pictures before is a great way to reduce the stress of the wedding day. Typically we can shoot much more pictures and have a little more time doing it. So thanks Cody and Cassie for planning out the day this way – it really helped me do the best job I can :)

Be sure to check out the last photo, as it’s my favorite of the day! And, as always, enjoy :)

Matt & Jamie can’t wait to get married, and if you only knew them, its not hard to see why. For starters their passion for God brings them closer together. They are both heavily involved my my church. Matt recently returned from a missionary trip to Uganda, and Jaime helps our regularly with the children’s ministry on Sunday mornings (She’ll be be getting my little monster soon!) They are completely head over heals for each other, which makes it super easy to do my job :) With the little bit I’ve gotten to know them, I see they are truly genuine people in their actions and emotions. The wedding is coming up in just a few days, so I wanted to make sure to get these out on the blog -enjoy!
