Martha Marries Shane: PART ONE

My friend Martha is beautiful.

Breathtakingly.

Her personality bursts through her every pore.

I have never in my life seen (or heard) anyone so excited to get married.

Shane is perfect for Martha.

He adores her, and she is head over heels in love with him...

And I got the honor of shooting their wedding.

My. FIRST. Wedding.

Thats right, the first one with me as the primary shooter!

Luckily, I had an amazing second shooter, Lesley Meyerott.

I am so thankful to have had her by my side.

The day was perfect,

since Martha is such an amazing, trusting, friend...

I bring to you Martha and Shane PART ONE.

Lesley took 3/4 of these images. My only image is the top left. Isn't she awesome?? She also took the first pic.

This is Martha. The image does not have sound but I PROMISE, there was lots of squealing throughout the day.

Back to business...

The Proud Momma

Not even half of Martha's bridesmaids. Some of you may be rolling your eyes. EIGHT BRIDESMAIDS? I can honestly say each of them WANTED to be there because each of them LOVE Martha. I asked Martha who her Maid of Honor was, and she said, "Take your pick". She loves and values each of her friends so much, she deemed them all Maid of Honor. I mean really, how could you not love her?

Finished!

Onto the Church

Adding the final touches...

I hope this next image leaves you excited to see more, check back soon to see the ceremony!

** A Special Thanks to all the girls at 1069 Salon. They did an amazing job on all of the girl's hair and Martha's make up. They were almost as excited for Martha as the bridal party!
