I've known this bride since high school, and I couldn't have been more excited to photograph her marriage to the love of her life last May. She's been through a lot in her life, and I was a little emotional when I got to meet Joey and see in person how much he loves her. He understands the level of cool Carolyn is on (a super high level).
Six months before the wedding Carolyn let me in on the secret that she was pregnant! She was overjoyed and said, "We are gonna have the cutest pictures! I'm gonna be so chubby". They had already named their future baby boy Asher and having him there while his parents got married was pretty magical. I loved taking pictures of the bridesmaids with Harry Potter books, witnessing the wedding party enter the reception to the Game of Thrones theme, the amazing dragon egg Game of Thrones cake, and the sweet moment when Carolyn was dancing with her father during the classic father-daughter dance and Joey brought Carolyn's daughter Sophie onto the floor.
