Meet Joel and Kate.

I have known Kate and her family for many years now.  I remember Kate as a teenage girl who occasionally babysat for my oldest son Jack.  Just typing that last statement put a gray hair on my head! Wow…where does the time go?  I am sure her parents are saying the same thing:)

Although I have not seen Kate and her family for quite some time, I was honored Kate asked me to photograph her wedding.  As soon as we met at the tennis courts…we were laughing and chatting and it was great to catch up a bit 😉

I had been looking forward to this wedding!  Kate and I have been chatting about the some fun ideas for her wedding and Joel and Kate knew they wanted most of the images to be taken at the tennis courts with some of the best pickleball paddles in the picture. Kate explained that her and Joel love tennis and are quite competitive on the courts! 😉  I later found out that Joel also works for Wilson…so this setting was just perfect for this couple!

Their wedding day was extremely hot and and humid.  The clouds would roll in and the lighting was perfect and then they would pass and the sun was hotter than ever..so what is a photographer to do??  Why…suggest ice cream of course:)  We did not plan this, but I adore these fun shots!

It is easy to see from the images that Joel and Kate love to laugh and fit so naturally together!  I had such a fun time with them and their friends and family!

Joel and Kate…I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness!  It was so fun to get a glimpse of your life now as a beautiful young woman!  Your parents have much to be proud of!

blessings,
