Jess is confident, calm and oh so genuine. Josh, also cool as a cucumber and the way he looks at Jess you know he's sure she hung the moon. It's endearing to watch. Both of them leading up to the ceremony were so focused. I mean it was really quite amazing. They definitely struck me as ready and intentional about that walk down the aisle...today was the day. What a gorgeous day it was. About two inches of white snow covered the ground...just enough to be beautiful but not enough to keep the sun from quickly melting it off the roads. Now the temperatures- that's another story! Jess and her bridesmaids were real troopers...up for anything and all about pretending the weather couldn't be better! That's what good friends do! Melissa, Brook and I were really like kids at Christmas. I think Mel literally squealed when she saw this green wall where we captured some shots. Everything was just beautiful and our company- so much fun! The reception was held at Bay 7 in Durham which is in the Tobacco District. Holy cow was this place cool! Old brick and steel and water towers and smoke stacks I mean really neat stuff. Josh and Jess's band Another Level traveled from Richmond, VA and they had the floor packed all night! It was the kind of party where you couldn't help but smile and laugh just capturing the moments behind the lens. Josh and Jess- thank you for trusting us with your memories! Hope you enjoyed the sunny beaches of the D.R!
Ok can you blame us for being so excited about this awesome green wall! Melissa grabbed this one...and I heart it! No really- not trying to be cheesy I really do!
Mel again on this one- what else would guys do with snow but throw it!? Love!
Oh I love this one. A throw back to Abbey Road?
Jess looked so stunning!!!!
I am in love with feathers as wedding accents. How much fun are these!!!
Ok last of the hearts I promise! But it was Valentine's Day weekend! Love the hearts.
Such a sweet candid capture by Melissa.
Everything around the church was very industrial...some may view that as a negative...but yeah we LOVED it!
Bay 7...I mean really? How amazing is the inside of this place.
Narrowing down dance shots was super hard for me...way too many fun moments to choose from.
Brook grabbed these of the band. I especially love the guitar close up!
love love love
Sorry to sell you out guys...but they have to know you were singing Mariah Carey...it just makes this shot that much better!
Bubbles!!!
