I can’t really recall a groom, or any man for that matter, being so excited that they squealed. Like a giddy school girl squeal. No, Bryan didn’t squeal outwardly but the excitement was written all over his face. Bryan was ecstatic on his wedding day and couldn’t wait to get to his bride. Alison was equally as excited but beyond that, she was so grateful. Alison didn’t take a single second of her wedding day for granted. Both of them were demonstrative. Not romantically per
Alison and Bryan, I can’t really explain just how much I had the pleasure of witnessing and experiencing with you both and your families on your wedding day. What a gift! I wish you both a lifetime full of peace and joy and you begin this marital journey together. And I’m even more excited that I’ll see you again SOON!!!

You’ll feel calm on one of the most overwhelming days of your life. You’ll forget the camera was there. And later, you’ll hold photographs of moments you didn’t know were happening.
That’s because of who’s in the room. Kari has been photographing weddings since 2012. She’s the calm presence, the one your mom will find herself talking to. Karli is the one making your bridesmaids laugh and keeping the day on time.
We don’t divide and conquer. We’re in the same moment, Kari wide and Karli close, catching each other’s eye across the room when we see something worth keeping.

[…] As I was packing up at the end of the night, Megan was holding hands on the dance floor with her brother, Bryan who is one of our amazing grooms from earlier this year.

Bryan and Alison’s recent wedding can be seen HERE. […]
