Emily & Charlie | Hermitage Museum Garden Wedding

6/26/14

Friends, somewhere along the way I got way behind in blogging full weddings from last year. Admittedly, I just got bogged down with editing and my focus became just getting images finished for clients, and blogging the full weddings fell way to the back burner (since I was at least doing preview blog posts, it somehow made it feel less urgent). Thankfully, I have a way better system this year that has been working great. But I had the privilege to shoot so many gorgeous weddings last year, that even though they’re late-in-the-coming, I want to do them justice and show them off. Not to mention my couples are way too amazing to not be shown off fully! So today I’m thrilled to bring you Emily & Charlie’s stunning day from last summer. I instantly fell in love with the Hermitage Museum and Gardens and it was the perfect setting for their beautiful celebration. Emily & Charlie are two of the sweetest, most genuine people I’ve ever had the privilege to work with and they could not have possibly been more adorable or in love on their wedding day. Without further ado….enjoy their gorgeous day!

I absolutely love the girls’ coral dresses against the bright green and brick. Such a striking combination! And check out that flower girl crown! So cute.

I don’t think there was a dry eye around for this Father/Daughter dance. I even teared up! It was truly one of the sweetest I’ve ever seen.

This bride knows how to throw it down on the dance floor! So many awesome shots of her, and I love her “game on” dance face. :)
