Right from the very first time I met with Alysa & Jason I had such a good feeling about these two and I knew we were going to have SO much fun! When we did their engagement session it POURED… but did that stop them, hell no! We wandered around the lake with umbrellas and had so much fun!!
When it came time for the big day I didn’t have an ounce of nerves which is rare, I just had such a good feeling about the day that it was SO easy! The predicted rain in the forecast pissed off which was nice and we had sun and some wicked cool clouds!
When I got to the hotel with the Alysa and her ladies, everyone was so chill, very relaxed, ON TIME (which is SUPER rare)! I honestly don’t think I have shot a more relaxed bride in the morning! By the time the ceremony was over and the fun began me and my Second Shooter Robyn took the wedding party through the golf course, had some fun and got some real good shots!
Doing Alysa & Jason’s portraits were easily the highlight of my day, we had SO many inside jokes going Y’all it was hilarious! I usually don’t have much trouble getting clients to laugh and relax in front of the camera but these two needed NONE of that! We had a relaxed timeline to just wander, chat, joke around and of course take photos too!
Shooting an Eighteen Pastures Golf Course Wedding is always lots of fun because the venue has that rustic feel and is a nice cozy venue! The rest of the evening went off without a hitch, except maybe the cake in the face… but it looked delicious! Not only did we have perfect weather all day we were even treated with a pretty wicked sunset!
Thank you SO much to Alysa & Jason for having me be just a small part in their big day, it is going to be one to remember for a long time!!
Cheers~jd
