Amanda+Brian at Revolution Mills

May 17th brought this fabulous couple's wedding, I'd been looking forward to shooting since their e-session. Their day brought joy...

seeing the bride with her hair done... I love the expressions!

the dress...

the dress on the bride, her first view of herself.

So cute! These flower girls were just gleeful. They know sign language, too, way to go Mom and Dad!

Amanda's flowers were inspired by wildflowers. I really adored them. Must find out who did the flowers, best ever.

seeing his bride approach..

that's a big family you have Brian... WOW.

awwww...I'm teary just looking at this. Brian loves Amanda, I can tell. :)

A country pig-pickin' was the theme for the reception. Great idea! Home-made pie was substituted for the traditional wedding cake. Very cool.

OK, there was seriously awesome dancing, best ever. It appears everyone can swing dance in Amanda's family. Her Dad told me he could teach me in just under a minute, I just had to let myself be thrown around. Um, I was too busy (and two left feet?) to try.

What's a pig-pickin' without some games? Follow the leader, according to groom or bride's team. Great idea from the DJ!

Congratulations to two wonderful families, plus one brand new one!
We're planning an "After Session" for the couple photos, and based on their engagement session from last year, I'm certain it will be beautiful. I can't wait-- so glad I get to work with you again!
