Megan + Nathan: the wedding!

Megan and Nathan have two of the nicest families on the planet.  And that made for one very sweet day.  And now those cute kids have been married for a little over a week and I must say, they are a stellar match.  I’ve got the wedding 99% edited and enough to pick out my favorites of the day. Here they are!

Megan and Nathan saw each other before the ceremony which I highly recommend to ALL!  The nerves melt away – well, maybe not for Nathan :)

wouldn’t you want her to come see you, too?  She’s amazing – this is a relatively unedited photograph – her skin really has this glow!

there were plenty of regular shots of Megan and her dad coming down the aisle but I fell in love with this one.
