I’m not sure I have the right words to cap the way I feel about this wedding (what’s that they say about a picture being worth 1,000 of them?
) but I do know I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention what it is I love about this couple.
I love that Ashley was such a confident bride (after 9 years together, she KNEW she wanted this man!). I love how much creativity and thought she put into her big day, all in an effort to make it unique. And even more so, I love how her eyes lit up when she told me about all these details — from the umbrellas (all her idea) to that beautiful veil and headpiece of hers. Most of all, I love how much she basked in the moments of her wedding day. Hers was one filled with little stress, many laughs, and lots and lots of love and I’m pretty sure that’s what every bride hopes it to be.
And what I love about Jeremy is how much he loves this woman who’s now his wife. I love how willing he was to take whatever photos I asked of him, namely because he knew how much doing so would mean to Ashley. And so he’d smile and turn, and smile and turn and look like the dashing fella that he is and that I’ve always remembered him to be.
Ashley and Jeremy, your nupitals were a long time coming, but I can think of few weddings that were as much fun as yours. You’ve spoiled me with this incredible experience, the kind that reminds me of how lucky I am to help my clients remember this important day of theirs to the fullest.
Best wishes on your marriage and a beautiful life on that fantastic farm of yours! And if you’re oohing and awwing over how attractive these two are (and how they had the perfect day for their wedding), then WATCH THE SLIDESHOW to experience more of it!

Ashley loves orchids. Which just happens to be Reason No. 263 as to why I love her

A few more of the beautiful details (and don’t think the fact her colors perfectly match my blog have gone unnoticed by moi!)

If I post too many photos of this gal, forgive me. It’s only because a) she’s so gosh darn beautiful and b) I like to squeeze as much joy into one blog post as possible. Mission accomplished ….

A bird cage veil? YES PLEASE! (this is one of ‘If I could redo my wedding day I would so totally consider this option’ moments I sometimes have at another person’s wedding). How much do you all love this shot of her? Because I know I DO!

Oh, now this is just cuteness right here. Sometimes it’s the candid moments that make for the best photographs.

Don’t think I’ve forgotten this HOT GROOM! (Hot may also be the adjective of choice to describe the weather this day - woo whew was it warm!)

“And I was also thinking about buying umbrellas for the girls…” ASHLEY YOU ARE A GENIUS

I love that moment right before a father walks his daughter down the aisle. Perhaps it’s because it makes me think of my dad and all the other fellas who have to pull themselves together before they can give their little girl away


HANDS DOWN ONE OF MY FAVORITE IMAGES I’VE EVER TAKEN*

*I have to add a disclaimer and add that this one is RIGHT UP THERE TOO

Perfect sky. Perfect clouds. Perfect couple. Perfect day.

So sweet, this image …

And a wheat field too? I hit the wedding photographer jackpot with this event (and doesn’t Ashley look FIERCE here?
)

These girls were so much fun — the whole wedding party, actually!



Ashley and Jeremy, thank you for trusting me to capture your wedding day. Ashley, your belief in my abilities gave me confidence at a time I really needed it, and I’ll always be forever grateful to you for it!

Beautiful couple, beautiful day and beautiful work!
Wow awesome images Gail! Your favorite is my DEF. my favorite too - the composition, your angle, the field, the sky….amazing!! Gorgeous couple too:)
These are great, Gail!!! Your favorite is my favorite, too! Wow!!!
Your fave is ALSO my fave! And I love the umbrellas. And doesn’t a good groom just make all the difference?
AMAZING GAIL! OMG! Seriously! These are some of your best yet! You need to IMMEDIATELY take the one where they are holding hands and the one below it with the bridal party turned away with the umbrellas showing and make BIG HUGE canvases and then hang them across the room form each other, because that’s too much awesomeness to put on the same wall - they will crowd each other.
Unbelievable. You are so talented!
