Jess and Jessie!

We had an incredible day shooting this Saturday at Jess and Jessie's wedding! We started off the day at New Hope Baptist Church where the incredible morning light was hitting the church just perfectly!

From there, I went with Jessie to the salon, to prepare for the day...

And Nathan went with Jess, as the guys did some "pickin'" Nathan described the experience as amazing. Apparantly these guys are spectacular musicians!

From there, we went to the ceremony. I love this image of Jessie waiting to walk down the aisle. If you look closely, you can see her father's reflection in the glass, as he waited with her. Her dad, who is also Jessie's pastor, walked her down the aisle, and then moved into place to perform the ceremony.

After some post-ceremony portraits near the church, we moved to Bryan College for the reception. While we were there, we were able to capture some incredible images of the new couple. Jess and Jessie are obviously in love, and photographed so easily! The light was spectacular as well! It was one of those times when everything fell into place for beautiful portraits.

Congratulations to Jess and Jessie! What an incredible day!

We were blessed to have the amazing Matt Dunmore with us on Saturday. To be honest, I don't know what I would've done without him. After a full day shooting on Friday, my poor arm was ever so tired... And Matt was incredibly unselfish as he carried my ridiculous bag all over the place! It was awesome!

Check out the Master at work.
