The story

John & Bekka, July 2026.

A summer day outdoors with a big, joyful wedding party. From the rings and the bride getting ready to the jumps on the lawn, here is the day in the order it unfolded. Book your wedding with me.

The challenge

Green light and a big wedding party.

Deep greens and shaded light can flatten a scene. I placed the couple where the light reached their faces, kept the blue palette of the party consistent, and used movement, jumps and slow-shutter walks to bring energy to a large group.

Details and the bride

Rings, flowers and the quiet before

The small things first: rings, bouquet and the bride in her veil.
