I rarely get nervous before shoots anymore but whe I rarely get nervous before shoots anymore but when @bmorra and Ben asked me to document their vow exchange, I was feeling it... Bianca first reached out to me in 2013 and we’ve been friends ever since. She’s helped me document many weddings for so many of my couples and she’s been there to support me and my work when I spoke at events or hosted workshops. Ben is an insanely talented illustrator and animator who has worked on some projects that many of us have seen on the big screen. Together they have a very high value of art and photography. For Bianca, photography is everything. She inspires me with the way she approaches shooting and capturing her own life. So when it came to telling their story, I knew what these images would mean to them and their loved ones...so yeah... I was nervous. After they received the slideshow, I got a beautiful video and note from them about how they were in tears and it meant the world to me. What an honor and privilege to have been able to capture and preserve these memories for them. I’ll be sharing a lot more from this day in separate parts but here are a few portraits and quite moments. Also looking forward to seeing the video from @mann_frau! #ohio #crockettsrun #quietmoments #fineartphotography #elopements #vowexchange
