On a warm (OK, it was hot!) May day, Meghan and Patrick went from high school sweethearts to husband and wife. Meghan has the cutest twinkle in her eye and the most infectious giggle, it’s easy to see why she’s loved by so many friends and family – and most importantly, Patrick.
My two favorite parts of the wedding day were the ceremony – because the priest had become an old family friend over the years and so the ceremony was sweet and personal – and then we had an hour in Occoquan, VA for pictures, which is a wedding photographers dream! It was hot, but Meghan and Patrick were troopers and I think it was well worth the effort for so many fun and beautiful pictures. 🙂 These are the portraits every couple wants to display for years to come and it’s well worth building time into the wedding day to get them.
From the time they book me, I’m happy to help my clients with the schedule to make sure there is time for pictures without adding any stress to the day. I’m also happy to suggest locations for portraits to fit within the time we’ve planned. Some ceremony and reception venues are great for portraits and other times we’ll need to travel to another location. Something to consider both when booking venues and creating the time-line.
Back to Meghan and Patrick and a few of my favorite wedding day pictures. Congratulations you two!
