The Pines is beautiful.  The Venue at Lilly Lou’s The Pines to be exact.  I have worked with this incredible venue before, but this is my first time shooting at their new location.  It was perfect for Miriam and John’s special day.

These two are such a great couple.  Not only are they fun (that first dance was IT), but they have an absolute kindness and love for each other that is just beautiful.

They had a gorgeous nighttime ceremony followed up with a beautiful reception.  One of the things I love about The Pines, is that you get that beautiful outside vibe with all the elegance inside.

One of the bride’s requests was to capture genuine moments of laughter and smiling with her and the groom.  These made that easy because that joy and excitement they shared throughout the day was just who they are. I love when the couple is just in sync with each other and the love and happiness just flows.  Mixed with those they have surrounded themselves with makes for a truly special day.

Miriam and John, I hope that you look back on these moments and see everything that made your day special, about you as a couple and you see all the love that I see.
