Married: Nooriya & Randy

Last Saturday was SUCH a great wedding! I love all of my clients but this one was one of those weddings that you come home from on a wedding high. It was worth driving through a monsoon for!!!

Nooriya and Randy booked me last year and I’ve been looking forward to their wedding for a long time. The ceremony was beautiful and tailored to them, starting with a Liturgy Dance and it also included a sand ceremony. After the ceremony they had a light reception for the guests while the receiving line was going on – which I really found to be not only YUMMY but also a great idea! We then stopped at Ely Square in Elyria before heading to the reception at DeLuca’s in the Park for some pictures. The reception was another amazing event, again tailored to perfectly suit the couple. They started off with the first dance and cake cutting and after dinner danced with their parents and had a dance in honor of Michael Jackson before opening up the floor to open dancing which included some awesome moves from darn near every guest that attended. Sometimes receptions can hit a lull where it’s not always easy to find the kodak moments but this event was literally bursting with them! I had such a great time!

Thanks to you both for choosing me to capture your day!! Also thanks to Nicole for assisting me!

LOVE this groomsman shot, these guys were so much fun to work with!


This is a great example of my method of “posing” – I put my couples together and just capture the moments that naturally happen. Makes my job easy when they are this sweet and tender together!


Having such stunning brides doesn’t hurt either, isn’t she so pretty???


Randy was pretty handsome himself too!!


One of my favorite first dance shots!


Randy’s brother giving him some riff during his toast!


Randy sweating over thinking what else was going to come out of his brother’s mouth!


One of the Maids of Honor dancing in honor of Michael Jackson.


Always gotta have a ring shot!


…or two!!!
