Megan and Josh get married! 1-8-11

I had the wonderful pleasure of photographing Megan and Josh's wedding on a wintery, snow covered day at Tom's Country Place in Avon, Ohio. I've never met them other than through email, so it was wonderful to finally put their faces to their names. Megan was a vision of loveliness in her full (pocketed!) wedding gown and gorgeous vintage-like headpiece. It was heartwarming to see the love they shared. Here are some photos of their day...

Megan gets ready with a little help from her friends...

Megan and Josh chose to take their portraits before their ceremony - we had the run of a large room separate from where the ceremony/reception was to take place. I replaced the wall mirrors with additional portraits for this creative collage.

Megan - the joy and look of expectation on her face - it's the kind of look that just cannot be emulated. It's pure happy.


Just a touch of ring malfunction - Josh did manage to wiggle it on the rest of the way!




Megan's friends couldn't wait to get a look at her ring!


Before the wedding, the weather forecast that several inches of snow could fall to the ground -- this made Josh and Megan just a bit nervous because many of their guests work for the same landscaping company - which means they would have to leave to plow snow if that happened! Luckily, the weather forecasters were wrong and they enjoyed a full house (there were about a half dozen snow plows in the parking lot, though!)


This....this is the look of love.




Their theme was Ohio State -- the guests received "buckeyes" for their favors - and in addition to the beautiful red and white cake, they offered an Ohio State themed cake!


OH - IO!!!!


It was a joy and a privilege to photograph Megan and Josh's wedding -- I wish them a lifetime of love and happiness!
