September 9, 2017 Wedding at the Basilica of St. Lawrence in Asheville, NC

I think I say this every time, but I absolutely love shooting weddings for friends. Getting to capture their memories as they take their first step of a new journey while surrounded by loved ones is a pleasure and an honor that I could never take for granted. 

Lauren and Eric's special day was no different; in fact, is was quite possible one of my favorite weddings I've ever shot because I got to see such an honest and wholehearted outpouring of love on all sides for the entire day (and a different side of Lauren than I saw capturing her on the tennis court!) From sweet mother and daughter moments while getting ready to the ladies-only trolley ride singing "Goin' to the Chapel", the devout Catholic ceremony to the celebratory kisses in front of the church, the tearful toasts to the energetic dancing - the whole day flew by as we soaked up every moment. Thank you to Lauren and Eric for letting me capture your big day and thank you to everyone who made their wedding so special!
