I feel like Michelle and Nate’s wedding blog should come with a warning. Seriously, though, go ahead and really get comfortable, maybe grab a snack, because this is a longer blog than usual. Typically, I like to narrow down the images from the wedding day for the blog, so you’re scrolling finger doesn’t get too tired, but for this gorgeous Walden Hall wedding day, there were so many incredible details and so many joyful portraits, that I just couldn’t. So, enjoy!

The amount of stunning details aren’t surprising – Michelle is a wedding photographer herself, and selected a wonderful wedding planner and vendor team to make her dream come to life! Plus, Michelle and Nate are both incredibly photogenic, so needless to say, they made my job pretty easy! More than that, though, these two are funny, kind, and as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. The friendship and love between them is a pretty amazing thing to watch. They were made for each other.

Michelle and Nate: I wish there was a word stronger than honored. I wish there was a word that could describe how thrilled and humbled I was that you chose me as your wedding photographer. You two are an incredible couple with love bursting at the seams, and it was truly my honor to be a fly on the wall during your wedding day. There’s no where else I would have rather been. Thank you, thank you! I love you guys!
