2012 has been such an awesome year for weddings. I got to marry my favorite person back in May at Chatfield Farms and just last week I finished up the season photographing two really beautiful weddings there. The first was for Amanda and Brad who actually came out from Arizona to get some nice crisp fall weather and their day seriously did not disappoint. We had beautiful blue skies and the weather was so nice that the guests spent most of the reception chatting on the big patio in front of the Green Farm Barn. Their ceremony was the epitome of short and sweet (seriously, I am racking my brain and I think theirs was the shortest one I ever photographed) and the Impressive Clergyman quote hanging from the gazebo was such a cute touch.
Amanda and Brad,
It was a pleasure to spend the day with you two. Congratulations on your wedding and best wishes for a long and happy life together:)
