Samantha & Jacob: Wed!

I once again had the opportunity to second with the spectacular Christina of Sloan Images this past weekend and got to be a part of Samantha and Jacob's absolutely breathtaking wedding!

Samantha and Jacob were married in Pioneer's Park in Lincoln underneath the Pillar's (which have a very interesting history, having once been a part of the U.S. Treasury building and "present" during one of Lincoln's speeches). Pioneer's Park in general is a very beautiful, but the added presence of the Pillar's really takes the beauty of the site up several notches.

So it was with the sun shining, family and friends looking on and the pillars adding a sense of permanence, timelessness and majesty, that Samantha and Jacob exchanged hand written vows and joined themselves together in holy matrimony.

Following the ceremony, Samantha and Jacob forwent a limo and arrived at the reception hall in style via Harley Davidson! Their arrival was followed by much fun, food and dancing (I don't think Sam ever truly left the dance floor once she stepped foot on it!)

Samantha & Jacob, thanks for the opportunity to share and be a part of your day - Congratulations again and best wishes for your marriage and for the future!

Thanks as well to Christina for having me along!

Tara & Oliver: Wed!

Spent a wonderful day in Valentine, NE today, where although the weather didn't play quite as nice as I would have liked, the atmosphere was fantastic! Tara, Oliver and their friends and family bravely faced the elements (it was cold and drizzly with temperatures in the 50s and solid cloud cover) for their family formals, then remained outside for couple's and wedding party photos as well. All told about an hour and a half in the cold! I wish I had had some hot chocolate to pass around, but as I said, they were absolute troopers!

Tara & Oliver, thank you so much for letting me be a part of your day! I wish you and Oliver the very best for your marriage - may everyday be filled with love, laughter and wonderment! See you soon!

P.S. Meant to get these up sooner, but had some technical difficulties, so I do apologize to anyone who visited right after the wedding. Everything was resolved positively and amicably, however, and we are moving full speed ahead at this point :)

Here are some of my favorites-
