I had the incredible honor of photographing the wedding of Megan and Chris Wilson, a couple whose love story has blossomed over the past eight years. From the calm and intimate moments of the morning to the lively celebrations late into the night, their special day was a perfect reflection of their unique bond.


Megan’s day began with a serene and relaxed atmosphere as she prepared for the biggest day of her life. Surrounded by her parents, bridesmaids, and the adorable ring bearer, she took her time getting ready, soaking in every moment. The morning was filled with laughter, quiet conversations, and the occasional tear as everyone marveled at how beautiful she looked. With time to spare, there was no rush—just pure excitement and anticipation for what was to come.

Meanwhile, Chris and his groomsmen were enjoying a laid-back start to the day. They spent the morning chilling out and playing video games, taking a relaxed approach to the preparations. Maybe they were a bit too chilled, but they were ready just in time! The camaraderie and light-heartedness in the room were palpable, setting the tone for a fun-filled day ahead.


One of the most touching moments of the day was when Megan shared a first look with her father. As he saw his daughter in her wedding dress for the first time, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. It was a beautiful, emotional moment that perfectly captured the deep bond between father and daughter, setting the stage for the heartfelt ceremony that followed.

The ceremony took place at The Earl of Doncaster, an elegant and intimate venue that provided the perfect backdrop for Megan and Chris to exchange their vows. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the couple’s love shone brightly as they promised to spend the rest of their lives together. The atmosphere was filled with warmth and joy, knowing that all of their loved ones were there to witness this special moment.


Just when their guests thought the ceremony was over, Megan and Chris had a surprise in store. As they walked back down the aisle as husband and wife, they shared a magical dip and kiss that left everyone in awe. It was a moment of pure romance, capturing the essence of their love in one breathtaking gesture.
