When Julia contacted me she described her wedding as being short and sweet, close friends and family with a justice of the peace, set in the trees of the OPPD Arboretum. My heart fluttered a bit when I read her message, it sounded SO similar to my own wedding! I jumped at the chance to document their day, I knew I could highlight all of the details that go in to making an intimate ceremony. I quickly rearranged my schedule and came up with a custom wedding package for their needs. When I was searching for a wedding photographer it became very clear to me that many of them don't have the availability to shoot short weddings during the busy season. They need to book those Saturdays and Sundays with the bigger packages, which is totally okay and I encourage it! I personally have a special place in my heart for the smaller events. Sometimes ceremonies are short, sometimes budgets are stretched, sometimes it's an elopement, Whatever the reason, I'm always willing to talk about a custom package. Enough of my rambling, you need to hear about this wedding!
On a chilly November Saturday, Julia and Ryan said "I Do" in front of parents, siblings, friends, and their little boy. The trees were teetering between turning orange or completely bare, leaves covered the ground, and golden orbs decorated the ceremony space. The best man crafted the bouquet and boutonnieres, while the maid of honor created the cake. Everyone pitched in to make Juila and Ryan's day perfect allowing us a large chunk of time to get through our shot list and a senior mini session for Julia's sister. You'll see her on the blog later! To sum it up, I was able to photograph a beautiful fall wedding, this is why I love my job! Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Backhuus!
