Dustin and Kayla’s wedding was absolutely beautiful. The weather was perfect and everything went so seamlessly. I really enjoyed spending the day with these two love birds. Watching their day unfold was truly special. Kayla’s dad tagged along with us for pictures and it was probably one of the best ideas ever! He had some country tunes playing on his phone during portraits, which created a fun and relaxed atmosphere! I could definitely tell that Kayla and her dad had a very special relationship from the start, which was so fun to witness. I also have to mention that Kayla’s maid of honor had the BEST speech ever!! She created her own rap lyrics to Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme song and rapped it to the freshly married couple, which was super hilarious! At that moment I wished we were besties, because I’ve always secretly wished I was a rapper (strange, I know) and any girl who can rap in front of a room like that is a winner in my book! Thank you so much Dustin and Kayla for allowing me to be a part of something so beautiful! I wish you two nothing but happiness in the years to come. Enjoy a little preview of your day : )

Cheers!

I am so happy to share these images from Dave and Sara’s wedding today! It’s been pretty busy around here with senior sessions and double weddings last weekend. So this week I’ve been playing catch up, which means a BUNCH of beautiful images will be coming your way! YAY!!

It’s totally hard to put words to what I witnessed on Dave and Sara’s wedding day. These two are such wonderful people! So kind hearted, warm, caring and loving. It was amazing to hear so many people on their day describe their relationships with them and how Dave and Sara have impacted their lives in so many ways. Dave and Sara were so calm and you could tell how much they were enjoying every moment as it unfolded on their day. It was great for me, because I just got to sit back and document what was happening right before me. Everything about their day was unique and personalized. There were so many special moments that were meaningful. For instance, the old Ford that made its appearance on their day had a beautiful story behind it. Dave’s grandpa borrowed his friends Ford to propose to Dave’s grandma and of course she said yes!! Later in life Dave’s grandpa went back and bought the same Ford and fixed it up for his wife. How stinkin’ cute is that! Love that story! I could literally write a book about all the awesomeness on their wedding day. Thank you so much Dave and Sara for allowing me to capture such precious moments. It was truly an honor and blessing to be part of such a beautiful day. Enjoy : )

A couple of things to mention….first, how stinkin’ cute are these two?? Their love is SO infectious and beautiful. As Pastor Lewis had mentioned in his message these two displayed three things in their relationship – intentionality, purity and a vision for the future. I thought that was so neat and a great message for other couples. Secondly, when I went to take photographs of Sara’s details I noticed that we had the same bracelets and then I knew we were the perfect fit. And thirdly, how fun is their good lookin’ bridal party?! They were a blast to hang out with for the afternoon and they made me giggle non-stop all day! The last image is from the reception when their close friends and family put on a show for them! Super funny!! “Oh what a day! A day in the life of Dave Schuster!” If you were there you totally know what I’m talking about : ) I had that song stuck in my head all night. Like I said, I could go on and on!

Have an awesome week everyone! More images coming your way from Aaron + Rachel and Dustin + Kayla’s weddings! Woohoo!

Cheers,

Emily
