When someone flies you across the country to photograph their wedding, you can’t help but be brimming with joy and gratitude–documenting love is such a gift, but being surrounded by so many incredible people in addition to the bride and groom is something I never anticipated. Both families welcomed me with such open arms, and I am constantly amazed at how after a mere two days previously perfect strangers feel like family. That’s what weddings can do.
Emily and Matt were wed on a sweltering day in Washington DC, and then continued the celebration in New Jersey the next day. Their comfortable, unfussy love is so refreshing, and the day was full with good laughs, wonderful relationships, and the best dancing.ever.
Emily and Matt, the biggest congratulations! I wish you so much love in all the adventures that lie ahead.
Emily, Matt, and family: thank you so much for letting me in on the best day(s). It was a dream!
