Someone once asked me what my favorite part of a wedding day was and honestly it's really hard to choose! But there is just something about the moment the bride & groom first see each other that gets me every time. It's not so much the look on their faces at that initial moment but rather it is the calmness & joy that encompasses them from that moment on. When Marissa finally got to hold Tim's hands and wrap herself in his embrace, there was not a care in the world. It was their day- so elegant & stunning and perfect in so many ways.

Congratulations Tim & Marissa!

Huge thanks to Manny for second shooting with me! Love this shot he captured of the first look:

Tim & Marissa- Congratulations! I am so thrilled for the two of you and very thankful I got to be a part of capturing your special day. I hope your surprise honeymoon was a blast! Best wishes to you both!

Love, Lacey

All week the weather forecast showed nothing but rain for Tim & Tara's big day. But as the date got closer the predicted weather began to show a little sunshine. And sure enough, on the day of, Tim & Tara were able to have the outdoor garden wedding that they had dreamed of; simple, beautiful and surrounded by those they love so dearly!
