Sarah and Colby Wright Wedding at Wappapello Lake

This Autumn Woodsy Wedding at Wappapello Lake Missouri was so gorgeous. The Bride and Groom were so silly and funny together.. I literally had an absolute blast taking these. You can’t tell it but Sarah DIY-ed her dress herself, adding the colorful gradient at the end.. How beautiful is that?! Perfect for the Woodsy Sunflower vibe they were going for.

Madison and Jonathan Wedding in Madisonville KY

This is hands down the most emotional wedding I have ever taken photos of. The happiest bride I have ever seen and the sweetest moments of a bride and dad I’ve ever seen too! I am a happy crier so I get teared up every time I go through these photos! Even though this wedding was a few years ago I think they deserve a Blog post of their own! ENJOY family and friends.. I love you all and hope you love these!

Shawna and Josiah got senior Portraits done with me last year so when she messaged me to get a couples shoot done this fall, yall I was SO excited.
