Brad and Erin couldn’t be an ounce cuter. I knew their wedding would be adorable because all they did during their engagement session was giggled together! Their wedding was beautiful, full of joy and excitement, totally stress-free! It was a perfect August day for a wedding. I had never been to Egnacio’s Church in Cumming, Iowa…and it’s now one of my favorites! It used to be a Catholic church, but was purchased by a woman who transformed it into a quaint wedding chapel. She also built an addition to her home, which functions as the bride’s dressing room. I am eager to photograph another wedding there; it was beautiful! This was my favorite place to photograph the bride getting ready, because the light was gorgeous! No matter what a room looks like, the light either makes or breaks the photos…contrary to what many people think!
Erin’s lovely, simple hairstyle was done by the ladies at
Bella Salon & Day Spa. This next photo is one 0f my absolute favorites from the day!!! Everything about it is so pretty – her fresh makeup, her hair, her expression, that one curl of hair going down to her shoulder, the PERFECT light! Mmmm
This was such a sweet moment. Erin thought her grandpa was unable to make it to the wedding because of his Alzheimer’s, but he showed up to surprise her! And what a surprise it was! She and her mom were flooded with tears of joy, and her grandpa was all-smiles, and as cute as could be! I wish I could spend a day with this gentleman and hear all about his life story!
They had me create a guestbook out of their engagement photos, and it was a hit!
Their super cool cake was created by Cake Me I’m Yours:
Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Sammons! You are a wonderful couple, and I am blessed to have been able to photograph your day!
