A Rustic Fall Wedding : Lauren + Jordan 9/7/13 – Brownstown, IN

October 29, 2013

Just two days before this wedding I was shooting in Manhattan worried that we might be late because of midtown traffic. On my way to Lauren and Jordan’s wedding I was afraid that I might be late because I got stuck behind a tractor and the annual Watermelon Festival was going on!

I love that I get to shoot in places all over the country. It keeps pushing me forward and keeps things fresh. However, I do enjoy seeing familiar faces again and this wedding was full of them! You may recognize Lauren from her sister Jamie’s wedding that I shot in 2011 (you can see that HERE) and their awesome barn engagement session (HERE).

I was greeted at Karen and Jerry’s house like I was family. There is nothing that makes me happier than walking into someone’s house and seeing my work hanging on their walls! The girls did hair and makeup at the house with the wonderful and talented Leah Phillips before we headed over to the church for the ceremony and photos.

A big thank you to the Best Man for letting us crash his backyard for photos after the ceremony as we were in search of some shade. From there it was off to Petwer Hall! My wedding season just isn’t complete until I’ve shot a reception at Pewter Hall. I’ve been there every year since 2009. Even better is that I was greeted by my favorite DJ Drew so I knew I was in for a good time!

Thanks again to Lauren and Jordan and both of your families for letting us be a part of your day! As always, it was a pleasure working with you!
