They shared their first look and Jennica turned to Michael and I and said “You know the first time we met, Brent told me that whoever got to marry me was going to be a lucky man because I was going to be a beautiful bride.” Little did Brent know that he would end up being that lucky guy years later!! He was right, Jennica was a stunning bride! Her BHLDN dress was so classic and timeless. As soon as I saw it I started thinking of all of the portraits I wanted to do!! Their day was perfect… even with the threat of rain!
We thought we were going to be dealing with an afternoon thunderstorm but it never came! Because of the clouds we had soft light and Shadow Creek provided a beautiful backdrop!! Baby cows for days!! This new venue blew us away and they treated us so well! We felt like we had known them for years! The property is gorgeous and the bridal suite is so photography-friendly. I can’t wait for you to see these getting-ready portraits! It’s amazing how well neutral dresses and gray walls photograph! I was in heaven!
Brent and Jennica were surrounded by 108 of their closest friends and family as they promised to love one another and choose one another forever. My favorite part of the day was when Brent’s sweet dad toasted the newlyweds and told Jennica that she reminded him of his wife who is no longer with us. He also told Jennica that the world will try to take away her sweet spirit and she can’t ever lose that part of her. Through tears he shared that Jennica had brought so much joy into his life and that he is thankful to now have a daughter. There was something so genuine about his words and I melted. I love this job of mine. It’s such an honor to celebrate and capture moments like this!
Enjoy some of my favorites that tell the story of their day!!! Congratulations Jennica and Brent!!
Remember these two?! Love them!
