Ericka + Mark = Married! Morgantown, WV - Wedding Preview

Aug. 8, 2009

Saturday I photographed the amazingly beautiful, fairytale wedding of Ericka & Mark.

Ericka contacted me probably over 8 months ago to shoot her wedding.  Her and Mark live all the way down in Arkansas!  We had a few email and phone conversations, but didn't meet at all until 2 days before her wedding, and that was only for about 2 minutes.  They are the first clients that I've ever had that I've never met, so I was super nervous at first if they wouldn't like me and how all of the details would fall into place.  My nerves were calmed once I arrived at Spa Roma and I met back up with her and her lovely bridesmaids.  They all had such a southern charm about themand were sooo nice.

I have been beyond lucky this year to have such great clients!  I always leave shoots feeling like I have a bunch of new friends!

These photos are in no particular order today...  :)

This is Erickas son Bryce.  He was sooo well behaved and totally new how to "work it"!  This was his "brown-eyed handsome man" pose!  Tooooooo cute!

Mark is a basketball coach down in Arkansas, so of course they had to get a little basketball time in before the wedding.  As soon as I heard they were at the colliseum, I rushed over and got some shots of them playing!

Ericka had the most amazing flowers!  Gerbra daisys are one of my all time favorite flowers!

The bride and her father.  So happy!

Funomenon Entertainment had everyone up and dancing!  I always love working with these amazing guys!

This is one of my favorites of the whole day!  This was one of the last photos of the night and things were starting to wind down, there were still a few people on the dance floor when I looked over and saw this glance between Ericka and Mark.  You can just see the love they have for each other!  Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside :)
