For You Are Mine
At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over and life is like a song, oh yeah
At last the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up clover the night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill I've never known, oh yeah
You smiled, you smiled oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
For you are mine at last
- At Last by Etta James
FINALLY. THEY GOT MARRIED.
You've seen Angel & Kelly and their little family on my blog before. I love working with them, so you can imagine my delight when I saw that they got engaged and asked if I would photograph the big day. They have been together already for a long time, so this was something that probably everyone was anticipating for awhile.. no pressure or anything like that.
Some more backstory... When we were discussing the big day a few months prior, there was a bit of nerves because I was pregnant, and my due date was only a couple weeks before their chosen date. We were worried I may not be able to photograph it, but me being me, I was going to do it one way or another. Luckily, my daughter came a little early, and I brought her with (which, I am going to brag, she was on her best behavior all day). I feel so fortunate I was able to do my job (and keep one eye on my peanut).
Here are some of my favorite moments... including the epic cake smash. Angel was such a beautiful bride, cake hardly made a difference. Scroll down to see what I'm talking about.
Congratulations again to the happy couple!
