Table Rock Wedding

Ok, let me start off with apologizing for the delay in this post. One of my very dearest friends on earth was married June 21, and we had the honor of documenting their extraordinary day. I'm about a week behind in my blogging because this wedding has taken me forever to get through. I found myself pausing to stare at Rachel's amazing expressions, and at times having to stop to wipe tears from my eyes. So bear with me...this may be a long one!! Rachel and I met in newspaper class when I was a freshman, and she a junior in high school, and we have been the best of friends ever since. She is amazingly creative and unbelievably funny, and without a doubt the most genuine and compassionate person I have ever met. I feel honored to be friends with a person like Rachel, and I don't think that my words can ever express how much I think of her (pausing again to wipe tears from my eyes). Rachel is the oldest of five children and is the first to be married, so as you would expect this was a very emotional day. And Tim is such a wonderful man, with an incredibly warm and welcoming family...it was our pleasure to be there for them. I am so happy that Rachel has found the love of her life, no one deserves it more!


As Rachel gets the first glimpse of herself in the mirror, Hannah (Rachel's sister and maid of honor), who was helping Rachel get dressed began to cry. At that moment, she leaned over and hugged their mother! This was one of those priceless moments I was so glad I was there to document!





The face of a father as he gives his daughter away gets me everytime!













I just love Rachel's expressions!

After they left their reception, we were able to steal Rachel and Tim away for a few minutes to do a quick shoot before the sun went down...I love these ones!
