These two NC State love birds are the best!!!  I absolutely loved photographing their wedding day!   Mary Jo might be the most smiling happy bride I have ever seen.  The way she looked at Matt all night just made my heart melt.  One of the things I love most about them is their ability to be silly and playful on their wedding day….so naturally themselves!   Both of their families were incredible; kind and welcoming, and I caught their mother’s hugging numerous times.   It was such a fabulous wedding surrounded by so much love from their family and friends.   OMG and the weather!  I almost forgot!  It rained all morning, they made the call to give outside a try, and let me tell you the ceremony was sunny perfection.   A day in August that is not hot??? are you kidding me?   Their family in heaven was looking out for them for sure!   It was a perfect day!  It is a classic and timeless wedding.  With subtle details and splashes of pink; but all the focus was on two families coming together.  Oh and their puppies Phil and Sophie of course 🙂  Everyone danced the night away, especially Mary Jo’s granddad!!!

Congrats Mary Jo and Matt!  I’m truly honored to be your wedding photographer and friend!
