I must say that Bri and Steve’s wedding was an absolute dream to photograph. Not only is Bri a professional photographer, but she also lives on a beautiful farm where Steve built her an amazing studio. It was the perfect wedding venue! The entire area is set up to take photos. It was so much fun being able to take advantage of all their beautiful landscaping, bluffs, available light studio, and a gorgeous old barn where they had their reception!

I first got to see their little plot of heaven when I went out for their engagement session last fall. The barn wasn’t quite ready yet, but Steve put a lot of hard work into it and now it has wonderful flooring, a bar and lots of space to party! I’m sure Bri has lots of plans to use if for all her gorgeous families and senior sessions.

One of the best parts of the day was when Bri’s sister hired a pilot for a flyover during the ceremony. I sent Heidi up to take some amazing aerial photos of the whole farm and ceremony. She also took some funny behind the scenes photos but begged me not to show them. I am still debating on that though!

It is always such an honor to be asked to photograph another photographer. Especially a wedding! Thank you so much for reminding me of how much I love my job and sharing your beautiful home with us.
