Anthony and Melissa are high school sweethearts and during Melissa’s mom’s toast, she mentioned that she wasn’t sure if Anthony was hanging out at their house because he liked Melissa or because he loved their massive garage! Maybe I should have prefaced that with the fact that Anthony loves sports cars almost as much as he loves Melissa!! This was evident throughout the entire day! Melissa’s wedding gift to Anthony was renting a Maserati for the day! Anthony arrived to the venue and departed the evening in style!!! And judging but the speed of his exit, I think it’s safe to say that he was having the time of his life!
I also saw this theme continue when I was doing ring shots! I was almost done and then I noticed some engraving inside of the bands that read “I love you more than Disney world” on Anthony’s and then “I love you more than sports cars” on Melissa’s. Ha! They are the cutest!!
After 12 long years of dating and then being engaged and planning this stunning wedding, Anthony and Melissa are officially husband and wife! One of my favorite parts of a wedding day is seeing how family dynamics play out throughout the event. It was obvious by the end of the night that Anthony and Melissa are SO well loved… especially by their siblings! And because I’m very close to my siblings, this warmed my heart and made me adore these two even more than I already did!
Michael and I were so honored to be a part of this amazing day and we can’t WAIT to share their wedding story with you through images!!! Enjoy!!!

A year ago, we promised to find a solution for those who were complaining about their R6 raw files looking dull and lifeless in Lightroom. However, due to various circumstances, we couldn’t deliver on that promise until now.
