July 22, 2017 ~ Valdosta, Georgia ~ A Wedding in Georgia: Luke & Amanda
It takes a very special out of state (or country!) bride to make me say “yes” to shooting a wedding! Amanda
was that “YES!” I don’t think I’ve ever been so served, welcomed or encouraged during a wedding!
Georgia people just LOVE well. Shannon & I had such a wonderful time road-tripping (accidentally getting locked out of our host house TWICE lol), and doing what we love best – capturing memories of people who dearly love each other. I don’t think I’ve ever seen two people more tenderly, gently, sweetly, peacefully in love.
Or a wedding dress so stunning: Amanda was pure royalty in it.
From the wedding party of 42 people, to their first kiss (followed by SO many more kisses!), to the tears spilling down so many faces in joy for their beloved people, to the way Amanda joyfully proclaimed to her Daddy: “I’m getting married today!!” to the way Amanda rested peacefully in Luke’s arms, I was reminded of the Gospel. May it always be so in your marriage. Congratulations, Luke & Amanda!! It was an honor.
