This wedding was a very special one for me. Special for the simple fact that I have known Vannessa since we were 12 and for her to ask me to capture her big day, meant the world to me.

These two lovebirds actually met through Vannessa's grandfather in her parents living room. Apparently everyone secretly wanted them to meet but Vannessa was the last to know. She says "oh it was love at first sight" and told me she was angry her family hadn't told her sooner and that they could of saved her hundreds of dollars from all the nights she was out trying to meet someone haha.

These two are one of those couples when you see them together, hear how they speak to each other and see how they look at each other, you know they are to be. Francesco's face lights up when he is looking at Vannessa, the laughter and happiness shines through in every single photo and well, they just look darn good together!

The wedding was BEAUTIFUL. The ceremony took place at a church in Kelinburg and then the reception was at The Doctors House. I had never had the opportunity to shoot at TDH, but I am so happy I finally got too. The lighting in each room is perfect, theres a mix of rustic and elegant everywhere, it's located next to the most picturesque downtown I have ever seen and the people who run the weddings and organize everything are very helpful and wonderful.

The weather was perfect as well which helped make my job even easier. After taking our group shots on the grounds, V + F, Michael (my second shooter) and I went for a tour of the town to capture their love on camera.

V + F, again, thank you SO much for including me (and Michael) in your day. You honestly are the two most easy going people I have ever worked with and you really had the perfect day.

Enjoy the photos! xoxo
