it was no surprise to me that samantha and kevin’s super chill rock island lake club wedding was sooo super chill. i’ve photographed many weddings at the rock island lake club and everyone one of them has been with a super chill, super laid-back couple. although i didn’t get a chance to meet sam and kevin until their wedding day, i could tell by our chat on the phone that they were going to have a fantastic wedding… and i was right. and to top it all off, we had picture perfect weather for their lakeside wedding!
i’m loving rock island’s newly expanded groom’s suite…
that moment when you think someone might end up smacking you with your suspenders as they try to help you out….
samantha linn mua doing her thing…
how awesome is this botanical hairpiece? beautifully styled hair by styles on location…
love the simplicity of samantha’s sarah seven wedding dress beautifully accented by her a touch of elegance events bouquet…
love me some blue skies and a super chill rock island wedding… perfect combo!
i capture a lot of fun photos on the wedding day, but it’s nice to sneak in a few quiet and romantic moments, too…
love this…
rock island lake club is so lush and green in june, but sometimes you just gotta go with a black and white image…
hah!
love the color of these weddington way bridesmaid dresses and how it looks great on all of these beautiful women…
kevin gets a hug from his dad at the start of their lakeside wedding ceremony…
love all the happy as samantha heads to the wedding ceremony…
kevin watches as sam heads to the altar
picture perfect. 
always great working with celia milton…
love this exchange between sam and kevin during their first dance…
summer weddings at rock island lake club mean mingling out on the deck and meeting new creatures…
the outtakes are always my favorite…
party time!
so much enthusiasm!
every time a backstreet boys song comes on at a wedding and the bride, groom and their friends go crazy for it, i am reminded that while my couple’s ages remain about the same- mine does not, hah.
all the single ladies…
if you are a guest a wedding i’m photographing– be like this guy and don’t be shy!
admidst all the intensity of the dancefloor, i like to witness moments like this…
such a fantastic time with samantha and kevin at their picture perfect, super chill rock island lake club wedding day. it was my pleasure to spend the day with these two and their awesome friends and family. many thanks to kelsey davis for assisting me.
