The dance was so special. So special it brought me to tears. I had to get it together. I had to dry my eyes to be able to capture such a special moment. All eyes were on the two of them. He danced just like my grandfather did. A silly little dance. Not slow and smooth, but definitely with a little more pep. Blair and her grandfather shared the sweetest moment together on that dance floor. You could see the pride he had for her. You could see the love she had for him.

This was just one of the many incredibly special moments that took place on this Sonnet House fall wedding day. It was nothing short of perfect. I was so excited when Blair decided to get married there. It was my first time shooting there, but I knew it would make so a gorgeous backdrop to Blair and Daniel’s elegant wedding day. Blair and I met in a small group through Church of the Highlands over 4 years ago and I was so honored to shoot her wedding day. Every detail was so timeless! Blair and Daniel were surrounded by their best friends and sweet family that loved on them all day!

Blair and Daniel, thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for letting me photograph your wedding. I loved getting to walk alongside you during the engagement season and be there to celebrate the two of you becoming one! I pray many blessings over your marriage!! Love you both!
