Darrick+Jennifer

November 20, 2010.

Dear Bloggers,

You remember Jen and Darrick from their engagement session at Latta Plantation, well, here is that awesome couple again on their wedding day! 

The gorgeous bridesmaids 

Rings! 



While I am getting shots of the girls getting ready Roger will hang out with the groomsman and capture photographs of them.
I love these next two that he took!



 The flower girl was so adorable!


Their "first look" session! Note to future brides, I LOVE LOVE LOVE when you opt for first look sessions and they are totally worth it! Not only do you get to have a little bit of alone time with your future hubby to calm your nerves, but it allows more time for us to capture all of the photo's you could possibly want :) 


Such a sweet moment



I love the pink and black theme 


I think it's awesome that Jen decided to be comfy and wear flip flops :) 






I also love it when our brides are fearless and aren't afraid to get on the ground for a few shots. Don't worry though, we put a blanket down first.






Somebody's beaming :) 




The Mr. and Mrs! 


The maid of honor's speech was hilarious! At the very beginning of the speech Andrea and Holly pulled out a bucket and told all of the guys who had keys to Jen's apartment that they needed to return them. Of course it was a joke, but their were about 10 guys who had to walk up there to "return" their keys. :)


I guess Jen will forgive her sister ;)



What's a wedding without trashing the get-away car?

Darrick + Jennifer

What was the most memorable moment of your day?
Jennifer: Saying my vows and realizing that in just a few short moments I would be Mrs. Ignasiak.
Darrick: Seeing Jennifer walk into the church for the first-look photo and then when she came in for the ceremony

What was your favorite detail?
Jennifer: My cousin, who's in the Army serving in Kuwait, called me just before the ceremony and told me he wanted to be the last person to talk to Jennifer Williamson...I hadn't talked to him in so long and it was just incredibly special- and it made me realize that this was really happening!!
Darrick: Looking into each other's eyes and doing the vows.
Any advice for future brides/grooms?
Jennifer: Just enjoy the day...you only get to be a princess once!! It's your day and no one can take away your joy unless you let them :) 
Darrick: Don't be so worried about the audience or anyone else, just take in the moment with your bride. 
If you could do it all over would you change anything? Nothing, it was perfectly lovely all around!!

CONGRATULATIONS!! We love you guys and are so happy for you!

 Love,

John + Kaitlyn

November 5, 2010

Dear Bloggers,

Meet John and Kaitlyn.  These two are so much fun. They have been together for 6 years, adorable high -school sweethearts! Kaitlyn is an English teacher and John works in landscaping. They currently live in Virginia. Their fall-themed wedding was in Pennsylvania, where they grew up.

Here are some of our favorite photographs from the day, enjoy!

 The girls got ready at Kaitlyn's parents house where her sweet mom made them breakfast and made sure everyone was taken care of.




I <3 ring shots



Meanwhile, the guys were hanging out at Kaitlyn's brothers house playing pool and poker.


 Details! 




KT's gorgeous dress! I loved the lace
These girls were so fun! Most of them have been friends for a while and it was easy to tell that they had a deep bond.
She looked so stunning!! 



Rog got some awesome shots of the groomsman


John wrote Kaitlyn a sweet letter that she read before the ceremony. 
 John's turn to open his gift from Kaiti, she got him a really awesome watch

Wait a beautiful moment! Kaitlyn was glowing...and so was John :) 

This part of weddings always make me tear up; when the father gives his daughter away. 
"you may kiss the bride" :)

Their first dance as husband and wife


Father/Daughter dance

Mother/Son dance


Bridal Party Dance

Roger and I stole the bride and groom away for 10 minutes to get some shots of them. There was no time to get their photo's done before the sun went down so we had to make due with setting up a small studio outside...in the dark. I must say, I really like how they came out!





Then it was back inside for the garter toss and the bouquet throw


Let the party begin! 






I think every single one of the guests got into the dancing...it was so much fun!

wow this picture makes me laugh

this kid was awesome! 


 YMCA

I think he was the best dancer out there! 




Congrats Kaitlyn and John! You guys are such a great couple! We wish you all of the happiness in the world!
