Lindsey and I met a while back, long before she got engaged but the moment I met her I knew I wanted to ( or would even) photograph her. Over the years we talked so much weddings, she knew all the behind the scenes kind of stuff, She knew about lighting and how one photographer's work looks different than another. Once engaged we looked through photographers, We talked about her wedding type and her vision and she ended up choosing me, after all of that. Then we started chatting about her own wedding, and Lindsey did things a little differently than other brides which was actually kind of fun. She never made one choice she didn't take a long time and well thought out. She didn't make purchases that weren't meaningful or usable, she didn't even choose bridesmaids dresses until 4 months prior to the wedding. She took her time and she made sensible choices and at the end her vision came to life and her inspiration bloomed and all of a sudden she knew what she wanted and how to get it! It all came together in one perfect classical day. I was so honored and excited to be there and see this day unfold and be able to see her be a bride, more breathtaking than I could've imagined. From the blush dresses to her showstopping gown, to the gold and green accents at the reception and the black tuxes and her own calligraphy work, Lindsey and Michael created the perfect wedding day. I'm pretty sad to see this wedding collection go out the door, that means our wedding planning chapter together has come to and end but I am so incredibly excited for Lindsey and Michael's future and I am just really happy to know them and share this special day.
