[The First Look]

There he was. His back turned to her. Taking one last deep breath before he saw his bride. There she was. In an elegant white dress. Made perfectly for her. She walked gracefully up to him. You heard her shoes click with every step she took. She tapped him on his right shoulder. He slowly turned around. She smiled from ear to ear. He took one step back, elated. He gazed in all her wonder. He couldn't believe it. The love he met in high school will soon be his wife.

Both of their eyes met. They both beamed with bliss. His entire being was filled with love. He held her tight. And closed his eyes. Holding back a tear or two. The day they have long been waiting for was now here.

This moment was only the beginning to their forever.

Shannel and Terry,

When I first met your family three years ago, I could feel the incredible amount of love as soon as I walked inside your home. Both of your hearts are so warm and sincere. Your contagious smiles have always been so welcoming every time we meet! Your daughter, family, bridesmaids, and groomsmen were so genuine and sweet to me and my team!

I'm so honored to have been able to photograph your wedding. Thank you for allowing me (and my baby bump) to be part of your family for the day. It was truly so special to me. I'm so excited for you to see a few of my many favorites!

Cheers to you, Mr. & Mrs. Jones!
