Alese and Joe have such a sweet and true love story. They actually met online and spent their first date getting breakfast and shopping for books at Barnes and Noble. Straight out of a rom com if you ask me! It really made my heart joyful seeing their wedding day unfold. Alese was a little bit emotional in the morning as she was getting ready, understandably, but the second she saw Joe at the first look it was like all of her anxieties floated away. Joe's reaction to his beautiful bride was just priceless! He was simply in awe.

There were tons of powerful moments during the ceremony like prayer with outstretched hands and personal vows that brought tears to my eyes. I can't believe I get the privilege to photograph such beautiful tales.
