Another fabulous element to the wedding was getting to work with Andy of First Floor Films. They rock at wedding cinematography and actually provided footage to channel 6 for their news story.

The Sofitel has such cool artwork- I had to use it for the shoes

Kim is extremely allergic to cats and dogs but loves dogs immensely. So I bought her the next best thing, plastic pets!

Thank you to Nicole Polk for being my second shooter and getting the cool photos of the guys getting ready and this next one outside

Micah looking very handsome in the bar

Kim was just stunning! I also have to mention that I LOVE birdcage veils

The dining room of the Waterworks Restaurant is beautiful. High ceilings, great wall details and sconces and the flowers add the perfect touch

The Interpretive Center is a great place for photos

My favorite photo of the whole day- I love how tight they are holding each other and Kim’s expression. It is a moment they will forever cherish.

Micah during the toasts. He kept looking at Kim like this all night.

I told you Ryan Howard crashed the party

Boogie all night long!

Here’s that veil again!

Partay!

Beautiful!

Here are some from my clients:

Valerie and Andy’s favorite image from their GTKY session: “It truly amazed both of us how you were able to put us at ease only after knowing you for mere minutes.  Sure, the first couple of shots were difficult but your kind, fun disposition made us feel comfortable and at ease.  We’ve had our pictures taken before and they looked forced, but not with you.  There was a sense of calm that day and at moments we forgot you were even there.”

Valerie and Andy’s favorite wedding images: “How were you able to capture genuine/raw emotions?  You were able to capture REAL moments with my girls and intimate moments with my new husband.  You captured Andy being kind, loving and playful; again genuine emotion.  You knew Andy wasn’t the most comfortable subject but you couldn’t tell in the hundreds of photographs from both days; now THAT is talent!  Thanks for everything Sofia! We look forward to having you capture other milestones in our lives!!”

Kelly and Chris’s favorite GTKY session image: “ We picked this picture because the location is so special to us since it is where we got engaged.  The blue door is so cool, people always ask about where it was taken.  And once again we are just being ourselves and having fun.”

Kelly and Chris’s favorite wedding image: “We love this picture because you really captured a special moment between us.  I can still remember what we were laughing at when the picture was taken.  We are just enjoying each other and laughing like we always do.  It shows a lot about us as a couple.”

Caroline and Adam’s favorite Indian ceremony image: “the beauty of the composition is stunning.  We love the idea of “joining our hands” and becoming one.  To us, this photo captures the traditional meaning of marriage.” 

One of Caroline and Adam’s favorite wedding images: “We love this image because it reminds us of how much we owe to our parents and our families.  Even though this was our wedding, having our families come together was the most special part of the day.  This photo reminds us of the passage of time and how all things change but remain beautiful!”

Caroline and Adam’s other favorite wedding image: “I love this image because it reminds me of the casual and intimate feel of our wedding.  Lots of people said they liked our wedding because it really felt like “us”, and we think our cracking up during the ceremony fit that description.  It also reminds me that in a marriage, you have to roll with the punches and enjoy every moment.   Which is exactly what we are doing!”
