Abbey & Blake’s wedding was a breath of fresh air. These two celebrated their wedding day with minimal changes due to the pandemic, and it was a big sigh of relief for all involved! This was my first wedding since March that was *almost* “back to normal.” For that, we were truly grateful! Another bonus is that we filmed the highlights from this entire wedding day to use as a video you can watch to see my process. Love you some Abbey & Blake and want more of them? You should check out their engagement session and Abbey’s beautiful bridal portraits at the gorgeous Cokesbury College!

Special thanks to these incredible vendors for making this day possible!

We did a bridesmaid first look with Abbey’s girls, and goodness these are becoming favorites of wedding days. This one was tear-filled and oh so special!

You would also never know that to the left of these girls was a not very photogenic parking lot pack with cars. Head to my behind-the-scenes video to see how I navigated this tricky shooting situation.
