I might be a bit biased with this wedding, since I was lucky enough to photograph it. I couldn’t stop my heart from fluttering on the drive home from Michael and Elizabeth’s Sonnet House wedding. Everything was so incredibly magical! Gorgeous candy colored dresses, whimsical flowers, adorable DIY elements, beautiful sunshine, huge smiles, and radiating love are just a handful of things that made the day so full of photo ops. Working alongside two of my best friends, Matt (DJ) and Dustin (video), made it even more joyful, as we were all able to witness the love between Michael and Elizabeth.
