In the realm of wedding photography, forging a connection with the couple is often a precursor to capturing the essence of their special day. However, with Tom and Kelly hailing from across the country, our pre-wedding interactions were limited. Yet, the moment we arrived at the Barn at McCall Springs, the warmth and openness of the couple, their friends, and family made it feel like we had known each other for ages.

Set against the picturesque backdrop of the Barn at McCall Springs, the day unfolded with an air of enchantment. Despite the slight chill in the air, the weather was nearly perfect. Our lens chronicled the early afternoon preparations, leading up to a profoundly emotional first look. Tom and Kelly, in a private moment, exchanged wedding vows that resonated with deep sentiment.

Adding a unique touch, Tom’s special request for a mock game day entrance with the groomsmen injected a delightful energy into the proceedings. The images captured during this moment were nothing short of spectacular. Kelly, epitomizing my kind of bride, surprised us with a pair of crisp all-white Air Force Ones for the reception—something that warmed the heart of my inner Sneakerhead.

The wedding ceremony itself was a moving affair, setting the stage for a reception that echoed with laughter and dancing, lasting well into the night. It was an honor to be part of this celebration, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude to Tom and Kelly for allowing us to share in their joyous day. As you embark on this new chapter, we wish you all the happiness in the world. Here are a few cherished moments from your extraordinary wedding day.
