Okay but aren't they the cutest? I just love Grandparents.

I called my Grandparents the "traditional" Grandma & Grandpa, what names did you have for yours?

The moment before the first look always gets me 😭 There's something so special about capturing the raw emotion of a groom getting ready to see his bride for the first time. The teary eyes, the big deep breaths, the anticipation... it's all so heartwarming.

"Val was an absolute gem to work with- patient, kind, responsive and a joy to be around on our wedding day. We had a complicated wedding timeline but val helped us plan and execute it perfectly- keeping us on track throughout the day and setting realistic expectations for what we did and did not have time to do. We are so happy to be a Val couple!" -Kristin
