Philemon vs. 7 "Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints".
At the end of May I photographed the marriage between Adam and Marissa. The best word that I have to describe the entire day was JOY. There was so much joy throughout the entire weekend and it was absolutely infectious to be around. I had the blessing to be there for their rehersal as well as the day of the ceremony and throughout the entire weekend, everyone, not just the bride and groom had this overwhelming sense of joy, elation, excitement and gratefulness. It was such a beautiful thing to be around! I love it when families all get along so well together, and from the short time that I had the opportunity to be around them you could easily see how close of a bond both of the families had. This is such a precious thing that I feel I don't see too often in our society anymore, and well let me just say that it truly refreshed my heart to be around it! Marissa and Adam had dated many years before this special weekend, and you could just tell how excited they both were for this day to finally come. Adam is in the Coast Guard, which has meant a lot of distance for them, so I am so excited that they can now finally be in the same place together. I had such an amazing time photographing this wedding, as it will show in the pictures how fun of a day it was and how amazing everyone was! I hope you are blessed by these pictures! And Adam and Marissa, I could not be happier for the two of you!!!!
Her dress was so gorgeous!!!
Such a sweet bond between Marissa and her older sister Mandy. :)
They gave each other gifts the morning of. I loved both of their reactions and the meanings behind the gifts for each other.
Ahhhh... Isn't she just drop dead gorgeous?!!! I mean seriously though! That dress!!!
The REVEAL!! They were seriously too cute together!
JOY! What did I tell you?
The bridal party was such a blast to work with as well!!
So precious!
Adam's dad performed their ceremony! What a special thing!
Loved how sweet Adam was dancing with his mother!!
Marissa's mother Clara is such a caretaker and full of more compassion than you could ever imagine! Being pregnant and photographing their wedding, I seriously felt so taken care of. No wonder Marissa loves her mother! A beautiful person inside and out!
Blessings you guys!!! :) Thanks again for allowing me to be a part of your special day!!
