Kathryn + Mike | Wedding

4th April

 

Time to get back in the swing of wedding season!  I am very excited for the coming year and the wonderful stories to tell in pictures.  To kick it all off I felt this blog was long overdue for a wedding post!

I shot Kathryn and Mike’s wedding last November but never got around to blogging it so I decided to play a little catch up and tell their story.

I inherited this family from Becca.  She had photographed Kathryn’s brothers wedding and when the time came for Kathryn’s big day she was unavailable so I got the unique pleasure of getting to know Kathryn and Mike and their families.  Let me just say I was so happy for the chance.  Kathryn and her family are amazing to watch.  They are so welcoming, so loving and real.  Plus they are a very large family and everyone from the young kids to the grandparents know how to party.  That dance floor was packed the entire night.  So much fun to be a part of.

I loved how Kathryn made sure to be herself 100% that day.  It is all I ever ask for from my subjects and she pulled through.  It was awesome.

Thanks to all of you for the chance to be let into your lives for a day.  I liked it there!
