VANESSA & JAMES

It was a cloudy day, but as I always say grey days are great days. Vanessa and James had a bit of cloud cover on their wedding day, but it honestly did not matter. These two were all smiles and the love they had for each other just shined through.

We started the day photographing at Vanessa and James childhood homes. I always love to start at places with meaning. Just something about it makes it more special. James is a microbrewer and I loved the fine touches these two added to incorporate their love for beer.

The ceremony and reception were held at Lands End. It was my 3rd time that year photographing at the venue and it is always a challenge photographing at a location more than once. You want to be able to find something new for each couple. Since we had a cloudy day I was able to position the couple in spots that I haven’t shot at before. It was great to utilize the location in new ways. While they wanted an outdoor ceremony, the wind was whipping a little too much to handle so a gorgeous indoor ceremony took place with plenty of emotion. After they wrapped things up and made it official these two danced the night away. Congratulations again Vanessa and James!
