I first met Stephanie when she was a bridesmaid in my dear friend, Beth’s wedding. She happened to be the groom’s sister. 🙂 Fast forward 5 years and Stephanie finally found her match in Zach. I know they had a “fun” time wedding planning, and changed the date and location several times trying to make sure their wedding would reflect their personalities. (then they finally picked Summerbrooke Country Club which closed for business a month before the wedding…time to scramble again!) I was thrilled when they moved reception sites to the University Center Club. It’s such a fun venue, and their staff and food is impeccable!

I would describe these two as laid back, and their day seemed to roll along just that way (which makes for a happy photographer)! I loved getting to photograph Beth this time as a bridesmaid, and her sweet little girl, Madeline, as the flower girl. Thanks to my sweet friend, Destiny, for assisting me while Ryan was out of town!

Enjoy the sneak peek you guys! Much more to come!

One of my favorite ceremony pictures ever:

I loved their social media savvy signage:

All the expressions during these dances were killing me!

This was something for me – the bride having a “credit card cutting” ceremony for dad! I think his reaction says it all (wait a second for the animation to load):

Thanks for a great day you guys!
