Words cannot express how much these two have a special place in my heart. From our first meeting I KNEW that we would be such an awesome team…I love when I’m right. Chris and Jennifer have been a true blessing. From their first engagement session to their second session…it kept building my excitement for their wedding in Asheville NC more and more. We all were counting down. On their big day I walked in to see Jennifer beaming with excitement and both of us beyond thrilled…the day we long waited for was here. Not only was Jennifer full of joy so was Chris. Although cool and calm on the outside his constant smiles gave it away that he was just as giddy.
Before we did Jennifer and her Dad’s first look, the rain decided that it would be a great time to start. Didn’t matter to these two nor did I care either…it wasn’t going to stop us from anything they had planned. Chris’s Dad picked us up from where Jennifer was getting ready and we rode over to the first look location. I got her Dad outside and ready to see his daughter and then headed over to the car where Jennifer sat and waited. I opened the door and, believe it or not, it stopped raining. I mean seriously…the timing couldn’t have been more perfect! The emotional moment of Daddy seeing his little girl in her wedding dress is by far one of my favorite moments…but I tell you what…when a groom sees his bride for the first time…it is magical. Getting to do both first looks in one wedding was AMAZING!
This day was phenomenal from start to finish. Perfect details, perfect couple, perfect weather (at all the right times), perfect ceremony, perfect vendors, perfect venue (Hidden River Events), perfect family and friends, perfect reception, and holy cow perfect ending with a RAINBOW.
Autumn, your work continues to amaze me. Your images captured the splendor of this lovely couple’s wedding day. I’m in awe.
I am in AWE of your talent and style. I truly felt like I was reliving the day and I do not often feel that when looking through wedding photographs. Everything felt so real yet aspects of the images were so dreamy it almost felt like it couldn’t be at the same time! You have a gift for walking the line between ethereal and authenticity and it was such a personal tribute to the couple/family while still looking like it came from a vintage styled shoot in a magazine! I am beyond impressed and feel fortunate to have been able to provide cinematography alongside you this day!
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL EDITED I HAVE TO USE CAPSLOCK!
