We had the pleasure of attending and capturing our dear friends Lou and Damsel's beautiful wedding day in Ohio. Damsel is one of those rare people that make everything better just by being herself. Her voice is so beautiful, just speaking with her soothes the soul. I am so grateful that she found Lou, the love of her life. He is everything that is absolutely perfect for her. We're both so grateful to be part of their life. It was a beautiful experience to capture their special day.

Most wedding features are highlighting the bride but for this, we'd like to spotlight the groom and all the special moments he had as he prepared to meet his bride, spent time with his loved ones, and married his one and only. We were also very fortunate to be able to create Lou's wedding band. What a blessing it has been to be part of their great love story.

So many special moments shared with his groomsmen, and looking so dapper. It was tough to narrow down our favorite captures. Enjoy...

The moment when Lou would see his bride in her wedding dress for the first time...it was so moving. They stood back to back while they shared the love they had written for one another. When they turned around, there were so many emotions...hugging, crying, kissing, and laughing. It was perfect.

And the ceremony begins...

So many special moments between Damsel and Lou... her wiping his tears when she met him after walking down the aisle, the tree ceremony where they took soil from her home of Wisconsin and his home of Puerto Rico and combined them to become one, when they sat down in the middle of the ceremony because the heat was too high and the emotions were too strong (this was my favorite part), to the first 'selfie' as husband and wife, this wedding was a tearjerker and one to remember forever.

para siempre...
