Ian & Jenna: Married

Ian & Jenna were married at Mt. Zion Baptist Church here in Columbus, GA. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and emotional. I must admit I teared up a few times! Jenna was a breathtaking bride and as sweet as could be. Ian could not take his eyes off of her from the moment they had their "first look." I was so happy Jenna and Ian opted to see each other before the ceremony allowing plenty of time for relaxed portraits of the couple alone on their wedding day.

**Brides - I highly recommend seeing your groom prior to the ceremony. You both will feel less nervous and the added benefit to your wedding day photos is worth it alone! All "formal" photos will be out of the way, allowing you to arrive at the reception at the same time as your guests!

Thanks to Lauren Wright for having me second shoot! :)










I decided to process the next photo a little differently than normal, and I love it!





The groomsmen had us laughing all day long. Check out their shades!




Jenna wanted a photo of she and Ian holding hands around the door before their first look...



I love this next sequence! Jenna sneaking up on Ian and then the emotion of seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day.



My favorite of the day!






I loved the bridesmaid's dresses and how the color of their sashes coordinated with the groomsmen's socks and boutonnieres!








I could not choose a favorite ring shot. Seriously could not. :)




Their parents surrounded them and lifted them up in prayer after the candle lighting. It was so moving to see God's love around this family.



Their reception was held at National Civil War Naval Museum also in Columbus. Jenna chose hot pink and black decor, with colorful centerpieces that had little lights in the flower vases. Everything turned out beautifully! No detail was overlooked. Even the hershey kisses had sticker photos of the couple on the bottom of them!



The first dance...







Lauren and me with Jenna and Ian. Congratulations you two!
