Kristin and René are always so much fun! So I couldn’t wait for their wedding day. The weather was perfect for a fall wedding. We started with the girls getting ready in the church parlor with the movie Father of the Bride playing in the background. Kristin’s something old was part of her Barbie’s wedding dress from when she was little. So her mother pinned it to her gown. There were so many beautiful places to photograph at their church (Church of the Redeemer). The courtyard was one of my favorites! After a few photos with the guys it was time for their ceremony. One of my favorite moments was seeing Kristin’s excitement as she walked down the aisle to her groom! After the ceremony and a few formal portraits with the families we headed out to Ault Park to catch the last few minutes of sunlight. These are my favorites! I love how you can see just how in love these two are! They can forget about everyone else and really just enjoy being together! Congratulations you two! We wish you all the very best!
