Julia & Wil decided that instead of spending time taking photographs of the two of them together on the day of the wedding, to meet up the day after for photographs. After Sessions are great because we have several hours to go wherever we like and spend some really quality time taking portraits. It takes away some of the stress on the wedding day, and gives you time to go wherever you like! We started Julia & Wil's downtown, which is one of my favorite places to shoot!









These last two were taken at the house where Julia grew up. They shared a lot of memories there and spent late nights talking in the hammock. I love that these carry so much meaning.




Julia & Wil, I had a great time with you guys!

The best word to describe Julia & Wil's wedding is elegant- there were so many things that made it that way. Julia just naturally has an elegant way about her and everything from the ceremony to the reception reflected that. But not to worry, they have a lot of fun too! Here is a peek into their beautiful wedding. They were married at Christ the King.

The ceremony was beautiful. Stefanie Rose Miles of Custom Occasions kept everything running smoothly and on time throughout the day.



Julia & Wil's reception was at Cannery Ballroom and had a totally different feel than Heather & Shane's. It was fun to see the difference! I love this cake set up. And the toppers were comic book character's.



This is one of my favorite's from the day. I love the angle that Jen took for the exit. Too bad I'm chimping (looking at my camera)!


Stay tuned for Julia & Wil's After Session!

*Update* I just realized that I didn't share about how wonderful Heather's planner, Lindsey Monger, was. Lindsey is A Bride Idea and she kept everything running smoothly all day and created a wonderful wedding.

One thing I've learned about Heather and Shane is that fun follows them wherever they go. There was never a dull moment on their wedding day! Heather and Shane fit together so well, and it has been great getting to know them. This first image seems to sum up Heather very well. I love her "I love Shane" shirt spelled out in crystals. As you will see, crystals made their way throughout the whole wedding!



They were married at Belmont United Methodist.

Bubbles!




The fun bridal party!



The reception was at the Cannery Ballroom. I love the exposed brick. You can really make it into whatever you want! All of these beautiful arrangements were done by a Village of Flowers. Notice all of the crystals throughout the room!


Heather and her mom bedazzled this couch. Everyone loved it, and I think Village of Flowers ended up with it.

I was very impressed with Heather's singing skills. She wowed everyone with "Ice Ice Baby". It was awesome.

More fun details.

The send off. Thanks for letting us have such a blast at the wedding!
