I photographed my first 2011 wedding for Jessica and Brandon in Lambertville on January 8. What a spectacular day! Brandon designed the winter inspired invitations, menus, etc and the weather couldn't have better complemented the snowflake theme. Jessica looked incredible. I started to cry before she even got dressed. I was reeling with excitement from the moment I left my house. The bridesmaids wore a beautiful ice blue that matched the inn's curtains, Jessica's eyes and her wedding day UGGs perfectly.
The limo driver was the most courteous man I have ever followed. The church was beautiful and the time there was full of those moments I pray for like Jessica being overwhelmed with emotion just by looking at her new groom (thanks Jessica!) and Brandon wiping away her tears (thanks Brandon!). The snow cooperated amazingly. Brandon told the priest that he put a call in to God for snow. I thought he was joking but I'm not entirely sure. Someone put stone steps leading to a snow filled state park right on the side of the road so the bridal party could get their photos taken and not have to walk too far (thanks Park Services!) and the wind stopped blowing so no one's hair got messed up.
This was the first time I ever wore my winter boots to a wedding. They are warm and heavy and keep my feet very dry. What I didn't know is that they squeak, extremely loud, on Catholic church floors. So, this was also the first time I photographed an entire ceremony in my socks. Thank goodness they didn't have holes in them!
It was a fantastic day and I am so happy I was able to be a part of it. Thanks so much to Jessica and Brandon and all their family and friends! I had a wonderful time with you!
