raleigh wedding photographer-cary nc

I had never photographed a wedding at the 1st united methodist church in Cary,NC, so was excited to say the least. When I arrived the sun was shining and the groomsmen had not quite arrived for their formal pictures, so I photographed the property and got familiar with the church rules. The beautiful, beautiful flowers were done by Brides & Bouquets in Cary,NC. The groomsmen arrived a little late so I knew it was my job to keep things rolling. The groomsmen wanted to lift Matt up which provided us with some good moments. I'm not a photographer who only shoots when everyone is finally in place, I like to capture the moments that happen in between. After wrapping up with the guys I headed over to the Matthew's House in cary nc to photograph the bridesmaids with Courtney. Having a beautiful bridal party really makes my job easy. We then headed back over to the church for the wedding ceremony where 200 guest awaited. I must say I was a little surprised with the area of which I was told I could photograph, basically a 6 inch opening through the doors out in the foyer. When the wedding ceremony was over the sky fell out. It rained so hard, so we had to make do and take the pictures inside the church. Thanks to Courtney's dad who walked me to my car with an umbrella over my head to protect my cameras, we were both soaked by the time we got to my car. A very special thank you to the staff at the Matthew's house. I appreciate everything you do for me and am glad to call you my friends. The Matthews House puts on great events. Chef Richard, Linda, Nina, and April are really good people and care about making your wedding the best it can be. The Matthews House also offers catering off site if you decide to have your wedding/reception somewhere else. Please enjoy the moments of Matt and Courtney's wedding. I am so glad they chose me as their photographer. Raleigh wedding photographer
