Everything about Courtney, Liz and their small wedding resonated so deeply with us, I can't believe I'm just now getting around to sharing it here. We absolutely fell in love with these two at a wedding we photographed two years prior. The entire friend group and family involved in both weddings is the most magnetic, welcoming and energetic group...we joked with them throughout that we just wanted to keep photographing weddings within the family forever.
Courtney and Liz planned for their super intimate, super emotional nuptials to be among a short list of friends and family in their favorite music venue where they often go to see their favorite artist perform. Babeville is a really unique space right in downtown Buffalo, we had a blast just wandering around exploring and documenting this whole day. Allison, the bride from the previous wedding we shot officiated the wedding and she's hysterical so that made the day even more memorable for everyone.
The love expressed in the eyes and on the faces of these two beautiful women this entire day was the biggest joy to document. We absolutely loved to witness such a love and hope that these images will inspire you to experience life with even a shred of the harmony and grace that these two do.
Emily + Katie - Waterfall Adventure Session
We met up with Em + Katie at the top of a stairway on a busy road in Cleveland. The stairs led us to this nook on the shore of Lake Erie. It's amazing that a little piece of nature like this exists among a whole city of collapsing structures, gentrification and concrete. It rained a ton that week so the waterfall was flowing like crazy and these two ladies were loving like crazy!!
Em + Katie love out loud. They shared laughter and quiet moments and so many adoring looks that we caught on camera! This was one instance where I truly felt the importance of our job as documenters. These two will forever have these records of their emotions to look back on; to see how the other looked at them and to feel that all over again.
