October 15, 2011: Stacy & Jared

Maura and I joined Jared & Stacy for their ceremony at St. Colette. I had photographed Stacy's Sis's Wedding a few years back. So I was excited to be hanging out with their families again. It was so much fun celebrating another joyous occasion with this family. Jared & Stacy were FULL of joy all throughout the ceremony. It was great watching them exchange glances throughout the ceremony and sneaking little smiling glances. The Priest was such a funny guy. He made everyone laugh. I generally don't listen to closely to the officiant but he really commanded attention. It was just a wonderful experience!

We headed to Skyview Lodge afterwards for photos & the reception. It was a VERY windy day. For a little while, I didn't think we would get to go outside but the Bride braved her veil and the wind. After photos, the guests started showing up for the evenings festivities. We had a lot of fun photographing Steph's kids throughout the evening. It was amazing to watch the way Stacy and Jared treated their guests. They were so caring and affectionate with everyone. It was just so joyful!!

Thank you so much for making me a part of the evening. I loved being with you both on your special day!

Melody & Matt

Melody and Matt were looking for a "different" kind of location for their After Wedding Session. So we headed to Lakeview Cemetary for some awesome architecture. It was freezing but Melody was a trooper. She walked around like it was the middle of July. We had a lot of fun laughing and chatting together. :-)
