I love outdoor weddings….someone says outdoor wedding I say…YES!  I know that some photographers find it hard to shoot in the heat, glare and harsh light…but I love it!  I’m so looking forward to the rest of the outdoor events of summer and fall.

I was on my way to the Brides home to act as second shooter for my good friend Nicole Cassano, when she called and told me I was going to LOVE the bouquets…she said there’s cotton in them….I said “did you say COTTON!”  I pressed my foot to the accelerator a little harder.  Seriously.  I have a thing for anything botanical or agricultural…and a bouquet that combines both those elements…I’m all in!

Another happy happy bride.  Amy wore a beautiful smile all day.

This sweet little one was in the back row and her Dad helped her stand up so she could get a better view.

 ”He stole her heart….so she stole his last name.”

My very favorite part of any ceremony in front of the Boardman Park Bandstand.

Fishing cake topper, mason jars, candles, Black Eye Susans, raffia, oats and of course cotton decorated the reception.   The bride and her attendants busted out the cowboy boots for a little line dancing at the the reception…you’ll need to check Nicole’s blog for those photos!
