I’m always happen to work at Landmark Venues so when Lauren and Bill reached out about their Stone House Summer wedding, I was happy that I was still available. Both in the medical profession, they met while working at a hospital together and here we are today. They had their Stone House Summer wedding after a very rainy month and just before a heat wave…perfect timing! We met up earlier in the Spring on a beautiful day for their mini engagement session at my house. You can check that out here.
I started with Bill and the guys for the groom prep…
A little toast…
Final spray by one of Lauren’s bridesmaids…
I like when moments like this happen naturally. I know it is popular to stage all of the bridesmaids around a bride perfectly posed as if they are helping her, but in my 15 years of wedding photography that just isn’t something that happens naturally. I think it’s so much more meaningful when a moment like this where Lauren’s mom and sisters were admiring her just as she gets into her dress happens authentically…
The struggle is real…
First look…
I love all the happy in this image…
I’m generally not a fan of dappled light, but once in awhile it presents itself and I go with it…
Cutie pie…
Bill watches Lauren walk down the aisle during their Stone House Summer wedding outdoor ceremony…
Bill’s mom looks back at her son as Lauren prepares to walk down the aisle…
A lot of ceremonies are pretty quick often just 10-15 minutes… I try my best to tell the story from many different perspectives…
Adorbs!
The new Dr. and Mrs!
Party time!
Wedding heels usually end up off the feet and on the floor….
I love how little kids will reach out to touch another little kid. I always admire how innocent and curious it all is…because you get older and if someone decided they want to touch me out of curiosity, they are probably going to get slapped in the face but I’m ever-fascinated by the sweetness of it all among little ones.
I always love the outtakes and funny ones better than the posed pics! A great day from start to finish with Lauren, Bill and their friends and family at their Landmark Venues Stone House Summer wedding in New Jersey. Thanks to Kelsey Davis for assisting me.
