You may remember this wonderful couple from their engagement session in Chicago this spring . They are both amazing people so I knew that the wedding was going to be a blast.

They choose to get married at The Mavris in Indianapolis which is a gorgeous lofty venue that I’ve been looking forward to shooting at forever. The small ceremony was held in the outdoor garden with just family present. Ali is from Mauritania so unfortunately a lot of his family couldn’t be there for the big day, but thanks to the wonderful world of technology they were able to watch via Skype!

The rest of their friends and family were invited to help them celebrate later that evening at the reception. It was awesome for me to see many familiar faces from IU and get to catch up with some of my volleyball girls that I hadn’t seen in years.

Congrats to Barb and Ali and thank you again for allowing me to be a part of your day!

Ceremony time!

Then we headed down to the canal for photos on the Mustache Ride buses….

So this was happening as we were taking photos…. pretty sure that’s not a good thing haha…. luckily we made it back to the Mavris despite the smoking/overheating.

Had to get a pic with all the IU volleyball girls!

Had to sneak in a couple nights shots
