Shayla & Graham :: Married!!

Shayla and Graham were married on a very rainy but wonderful day, and I was so happy and honored to be a part of it and to spend the day with them!! I started out with Shayla and all her girls at the salon, I love the whole getting ready process so much!! Then I stopped by the hotel quickly for some detail photos, and then went to the ceremony location to meet Graham and the guys for some getting ready shots. Shayla and Graham chose to have a First Look and do most of the their photos before the ceremony, and because it was raining so hard we did the first look in the chapel and it was so sweet, I so loved the look on Graham’s face when he turned around to see his bride for the first time in her wedding dress!!! We did some fun group photos around the chapel and luckily it stopped raining at one point for two minutes so we could run outside! Then my husband and wonderful second shooter and I took Shayla and Graham off for some sweet couples photos, we found a big overhang so we could be outside but out of the pouring rain! Then was the sweet ceremony, and then it stopped raining – yay!!! We were able to do family photos and then some more couples photos outside which was so nice, and then it was off to the reception at the University Club (the food was amazing!!).

The whole day was so wonderful and I loved all of Shayla and Graham’s friends and family, everyone was so fun and welcoming and I can’t thank them enough! And thank you so much to Shayla and Graham for having me be a part of your day, I’m so happy for you both and loved getting to know you!!!
