Every wedding I shoot at this point, I get to the car and say āwow Christianā the people we get to be around are incredible!ā and Iām so lucky Iām at a point in my business where THESE are the clients I get to work with š
At one point yesterday, we had downtime before the ceremony. We were chatting about Madi + Tanner to other vendors. Just how sweet they are, how they are always in a great mood, their energy is just incredible at all times, how calm the day wasā¦I could go on and on. And now we know the people they surround themselves with are the same way! It was truly incredible to be at their wedding yesterday! I mean that whole heartedlyā it was a wholesome, fun and the most CHILL day! I never heard one complaint or grumble from a single personā truly the most joyful filled wedding! Christian said at one point āgood people are just GOOD people!ā and he is so so right! I did not cry the entire ceremonyā¦.until they turned to walk back down the aisle. Iāve never heard a crowd clap and cheer soooo loud for anyone for what felt like close to a minute. I instantly thought āWow! Imagine being THAT loved by every single person in this room. This entire room is filled with human beings that love them THIS much!ā And instantly had uncontrollable tears!
We knocked every formal photo out before the ceremony so I could send these two off to *enjoy* their own cocktail hour! My number one goal is for the bride and groom (and family and friends) to LIVE the dayā not rush through it and be pulled in 10001 directions. We crushed it soooo much that these two had TWO. WHOLE. HOURS. of *downtime* to hang out before their ceremony! Every single photo, donezo with two hours to spare! When I make wedding day timelines, know my priority is always you enjoying your day and getting to soak up every second of it!
I could keep this caption going for literal days, but Iāll end by saying this:
Every photo you will see from this wedding is truly what my eyes just saw yesterday. Minimal posingā these and every one after are Tanner + Madi living their day, just existing and so in love! It couldnāt be more perfect!
