Last weekend I had the honor of shooting the wedding of Stacey and Jeremy. It was a beautiful day, with a beautiful couple! Jeremy is a United States Marine, and the wedding was complete with a Sword Detail.



Moments after seeing other for the first time…very emotional!


S&J walked out under the swords, and stopped at the end. Stacey was welcomed to the Marines with a smack on the butt with a sword! The surprise on her face, and the knowing smile of her groom, were priceless!

Isn’t she just stunning? Her shoes were great, too!


The reception at the Comfort Inn and Suites in Fort Madison was beautiful. I’ve never seen so many origami cranes in one place. There were hundreds, all over every surface!

I stole a moment alone with tbe bride and groom before leaving the reception, and love the raw emotion of a couple in love.
