I've been editing Hannah & Craig's wedding photos for a few hours now, and I've been relentlessly mulling over adjectives that can properly describe it. "Picturesque"..."incredible"..."memorable"..."emotionally inspiring".

I still can't come up with a word that really fits how it felt. I took Hannah & Craig's engagement photos last summer, and we had an absolute blast. Being Craig's cousin, I attended their wedding as a hybrid I like to call, "photograguest" (I'm sure you can figure out the two roles), and it was such an honor to partake in such a huge part of their day, and enjoy myself with my family. The staff at Hawk Inn were so helpful and really put on an amazing wedding. 

I could go on for hours how marvelous their wedding was, but I'll let the photos do the talking. Click the cut to see more!

Whether I shoot a wedding for someone I've met through other clients, or whether I shoot a wedding for someone that's near & dear to my heart, I can't help but be constantly blown away by how amazing my clients are. Jon & Kaitlin asked me to do their engagement photos last summer, and we had an absolute blast. It was the perfect harmony of the "meet someone new" and the "near & dear to my heart"--Jon's sister is my best friend, and I've known him since I was a freshman in high school (so over 10 years (yikes!)), and I was able to finally meet Kaitlin after hearing so many wonderful things about her. 

Fast forward to this summer, and their amazing wedding. I seriously had the hardest time trying to whittle down the photos to put into a post, but I tried my best. Click the cut below to check out the wedding in its full glory!
