Capturing a Vibrant Wedding Day
Rachel & Alex’s Unforgettable Of the Land Wedding
“You and I stargazing Intertwining souls
We were never strangers
You were right there all along”
– Stargazing by Myles Smith
These lyrics truly hit home as I captured the unforgettable moments of Rachel & Alex’s Of the Land Wedding. The day was a beautiful blend of close-knit family, friends adorned in vibrant attire, joyous vibes, and so much more! I can’t wait to share all the magic with you!
The day kicked off with photographing the couples smaller details and I opened pearl after pearl after pearl piece of jewelry, each one a precious gift from Rachel’s mom, grandma, and friends. Alex, eager and ready ahead of schedule, couldn’t wait to get to the venue to see his bride while getting ready in a nearby hotel. The air was thick with anticipation, as everyone was abuzz with excitement, ready to get things rolling.
Before their eyes met, Rachel had an emotional first look with her dad. As soon as they saw each other, tears flowed freely—it was such a beautiful moment to capture.
Then came the cherished moment we all were looking forward to. Under the very tree where they would soon exchange vows and officially wed, Rachel and Alex stole a private moment together. And wow, did Rachel stun Alex with her dress, veil, and sheer beauty!
After soaking in their personal vows in front of their closest family members, we wandered around Of the Land for some stunning portraits. Their wedding party joined in, and we even squeezed in a lively game of cornhole!
Watching Rachel walk down the aisle with her dad, I caught a glimpse of Alex, and it was clear—he was more than ready to marry the love of his life. Seeing the two celebrate after their ceremony will forever stay in my mind because of how much happiness these two exuded! The rest of the day whizzed by in a joyful blur. Rachel’s grandma and Alex’s brother signed the marriage license, their first dance wowed the crowd, and they shared sweet moments dancing with their parents. Laughter and smiles were everywhere, and I felt so lucky to capture it all!
Congratulations again, Rachel & Alex!
