What do you get when you have an amazing bride and groom, super fun bridal party and perfect fall weather? You guessed it… Aileene and John’s wedding day! We really enjoyed working with these two during their engagement session last year, so we were thrilled when their big day finally arrived full of sunshine and a cool fall breeze. Most of the morning activity was in downtown Cuyahoga Falls so we decided to stay close by for photos after the ceremony as well. We shot some super fun urban-vibe group portraits before wandering down to the riverfront with our bride and groom.
Aileene and John are so sweet with each other and so cute that we just stepped back, let them be themselves and photographed the happiness. We love watching couples interact and enjoy some much needed time together in the midst of a busy wedding day. This is why we always try to create a casual mood and private space during portraits to allow our couples to relax, laugh and emotionally connect with each other. Plus, they usually need to build up their energy for the party ahead. And oh wow, what a party it was…
A few gifts for each other and they were ready for the ceremony…
And you’re MARRIED! Now that’s the kind of happy people talk about…
This little man was helping me out with some family photos.
You guys were such a fun group that we couldn’t pick our favorite, so you get two crazy ones!
Gorgeous ladies. We loved the mixed dresses and shoes.
We love a good brick wall… and laughter.
You two are so stinkin’ cute together. We love it!
We then spent some time down by the riverfront. We love getting the mixture of urban and natural backdrops.
LOVE this so much. What a gorgeous day!
Stunning portraits, Aileene! It was tough to choose just a few because we had so many favorites. :o)
And then it was time to party!
We love this mother-daughter moment…
And by party we meant C-R-A-Z-Y-P-E-O-P-L-E ! Just in case there was any confusion.
The Delta Gamma girls sang while hugging each other. The Sigma Alpha Epsilon guys had other ideas…
And a few of us enjoying the day and doing our thing…
Making sense of the chaos.
Good job, John. Way to keep Aileene laughing!
Sharing our best shots. If we ever need an assistant then we know who to call…
