I went through many of my past wedding galleries yesterday searching for the frames that stood out to me- the ones that I remembered capturing long after the weddings ended. These are 15 frames that I found and I want to tell you about them.
1 - Trenna and Aaron finishing their first dance- celebrating that all the formalities of the day are finished and it’s time to fully celebrate with their people
2- Lindsay’s grandma crying when she sees her as a bride for the first time
3- lifejackets hanging outside the getting ready cabins at a lakeside wedding, marking a weekend full of family time leading up to the big day
4- Kurt’s mom greeting and seating guests before the ceremony begins
5- Charlie’s dad carrying all the table bouquets that someone must have forgotten to bring in
6- Trenna’s bridesmaids all sneaking a peak out the tiny cabin window at the first look
7- Mackenzie’s grandma bright and early at the ceremony laughing with guests
8- Melissa and Mike’s twin boys and some of their grandparents, showcasing their reactions when they see them in their suits for the first time
9- Austin’s dad tying everyone’s ties
10- Charlie’s best friend on FaceTime at the reception, tearing up at the speeches because she couldn’t be in attendance
11- Chad, the groom’s mom, putting final touches on her makeup as he watches from the hallway
12- Trenna’s mom and sisters reaction to their daughter/sister’s wedding vows
13- Taylor and Owen’s guests bundle up to watch a fall evening first dance under the gazebo
14- a grandma holding hands with a grand baby before the ceremony starts
15- Dennis, the groom, holding his sons hand as they exit family photos
Now, what do all these frames have in common? They are the small moments in between the big ones. They are the moments that, if you aren’t paying close attention, you’ll miss. They are the moments that the couple would likely never remember, or have seen, if not for me capturing them. They are my favourite frames of the day. They are the frames that tell the story. 🫶🏽
