BRITTNEY+RALEIGH

Oh man. This wedding. So much chaotic beauty.

Brittney absolutely wins the “just gunna roll with it” bride of the year award. When I arrived I learned that we might be taking a small field trip to the bridal store as her dress was being custom made and wasn’t done yet. When I asked Brittney what her dress looked like, she had no idea. One of her amazing bridesmaids made all of the dresses, including the wedding dress and was finishing up the dress while we were there. Most brides would be having an all out meltdown. Brittney was probably the most calm person in the room. She was actually reminding everyone else to be calm and that all that mattered was that she was surrounded by all of the people who meant the most to her and that she was about to marry an absolutely amazing man.

So much grace.

Beauty in the chaos.

    This is such a cool idea for a wedding; it must have been such a challenge lighting-wise, but you killed it.
