Days like this one remind me why we love our work. Because weddings are often unpredictable, it’s a real pleasure for us when a day unfolds as perfectly as Rebecca and Matt’s did a couple of weekends ago. Besides being knock-out gorgeous, Rebecca was calm and lovely. Matt seemed excited but steady. For John and I, the finest thing is to witness and capture a couple’s chemistry. (Not everyone has chemistry, or are able to show it.) However, there’s huge chemistry between Rebecca and Matt. And not only that: their families are awesome. Both sides of parents were really involved in the day. In fact, Matt’s Dad was the best man, and Rebecca’s Mom handmade the table cards, each with a customized wineglass charm as a wedding favor. Matt and Rebecca celebrated with fun families, sisters, in-laws and good friends.
So when you take chemistry and overlay a spectacular setting the result is pure beauty. The day was perfect, the light was clear and bright, spirits were high and everyone was happy.
Rebecca: thanks for not breaking an ankle in the field. You guys were good sports to traipse out there with us. Hope you didn’t get too many stickers in your socks! Thanks for having us with you on your sweet, sweet wedding day.
Here’s a little collection of our favorites set to music.
