Weekend Mountain Wedding: an Abandoned House and an Open Field

They come few and far between. Those moments when your family and friends are healthy… happy. When you can see everything in life for the blessing that it is, rather than the job, errand, or line on the To Do list that’s calling. When life is, in its purest form, good.

This was one of those moments.

Our photographers were drawn to this house for our pictures. We would have never taken pictures in the field, otherwise. We were just driving down the road looking for anything that caught our eye, and gave us inspiration. And that’s when we stumbled across her—vacant and boarded up. So we decided to give her some love and play house in the front.

Being intimate in front of a photographer can be daunting. I know that during our engagement session I felt awkward 99% of the time. Passerbyers looking at me. Lens up in my face. I was making faces I didn’t even know existed… and not in a good way. But on the day of our wedding, it didn’t matter anymore. I was only focused on my new husband, and I felt so incredibly peaceful…

let me just say, your eyebrows are fantastic. random, i know, but i’m a make-up artist and am obsessed with other people’s eyebrows, it’s one of the first things i notice.

You look amazing, and so focused on your hubby! I like the abandoned house, abandoned buildings always add really nice contrast to dressy photos.

Beautiful! And I agree — I felt awkward and like our engagement session was “forced fun.” (Even my kisses look bizarre, like I was puckering my lips too much or scared to have my mouth open even a centimeter!) But on the wedding day, I don’t remember having any confidence or shyness issues — and I really hope our photos reflect this!

Gorgeous!! As always! you can definitely see the emotion in the pictures and it’s amazing. I too felt awkward with the e-pics. Let’s hope I don’t for the wedding!
