What a humbling wedding experience…
Steve and Sabrina contacted me earlier in the year to book their wedding photography. I was honored that they chose me, and simply awed by the actual event. I’ve done many weddings. This one was different.
The bride and groom were from NYC as did most of their families and friends. They rented 5 houses in Sandbridge which was where the ceremony took place. The reception was at the Lesner Inn. Friends and far flung relatives came from ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. (this one and many OTHER countries)
That doesn’t sound TOO atypical. But, about half of the guests at this wedding including some of the family members were all hearing impaired. The ceremony was signed. The lyrics to special songs were signed. The toasts were signed. Getting all these wonderful people together to shoot over 170 formal shots was exhausting. Shooting a wedding that ended up producing nearly 1100 delivered images was exhausting.
I learned a lot about humility and the strength of the human spirit this day. Even with all the pictures to follow below, it doesn’t even scratch the surface of the love and joy expressed at this wedding.
Just amazing.
Here’s just a smidge of the coverage which felt like TWO weddings at once.:

And, that last picture. That’s the sign for “I Love You”. I must have seen that sign 1000 times during this wedding.
As I look through all the images, it just makes me smile.
