“Are you nervous?”- I asked.
Adrielle never replied.
Last week I had the wonderful opportunity to be a second photographer at a beautiful wedding. It is going to be hard to record all of the emotion, detail, and joy that was clearly at the heart of August 28th, 2011. Every detail was completely perfect. From the dresses to the venue, continuing with the vows all the way through to the centerpieces. Beginning with two people and ending as one – Adrielle did a wonderful job weaving both of their relationship and personalities into their day.
It was apparent as the Bride and the bridesmaids were getting ready - that this was a close knit group of girls. The conversations between them were reflective on the past at the same time as being completely in the present. As the afternoon slowly transformed into evening – the clouds started rolling in. We all looked outside hoping and praying for the sky to remain closed just long enough for the ceremony. Shortly before the wedding was to begin, however, the sky started to release large raindrops. After about 20 minutes of rain, Jesse and Adrielle decided it was long enough! (After all, they hadn’t seen each other all day…) And so began a wedding in the rain. Once the bride started walking down the isle – God miraculously closed the sky just long enough for the vows and first kiss. Finally, there was a Jesse & Adrielle Stanley. =)
Enjoy my snapshots of Jesse and Adrielle’s wonderful wedding. The pictures clearly tell the story of their day.
