Nick + Monica's wedding was fabulous. They got married in Cleveland, OH. It was a beautiful, perfect day in May. Well, I hadn't met Monica until the week before the wedding. We talked about the details of her lovely day. When I left I knew it was going to be a wedding I'd never forget. It was going to be perfect!
Monica was quiet and reserved, but confident. She is one of those girls that has such a pleasant and sweet personality that everyone can't help but love. I hadn't met Nick until the wedding day, but I knew right away how good of a match they were. They complimented each other in so many different ways.

Monica had a lot of family come from Egypt for the wedding (how cool is that??!!). They had friends from all over the US come in for the wedding also. It was awesome to see all the love and support they had on their wedding day.

We started out early photographing Monica as she got all dolled up for Nick. She was glowing the entire day!

Monica had some gorgeous details...her dress, shoes, rings, jewelry--it was all beautiful!!!

I'm partial to LACE. I just love it.

Like I said SHE WAS GLOWING the whole day.

I'm pretty sure her daddy was on cloud 9 the entire day.

The guys were waiting for me at the church...a very fun bunch of guys!

ALL the girls looked just perfect!

BUT the day wouldn't have been the same without her little sidekick ;)

Nick's dad had passed a away a few years ago. When he found out he didn't have long to live he wrote Nick a letter, and he wanted the letter read to Nick on his wedding day. It was one of the most touching moments I've ever heard.

THANK YOU both for letting me capture your love!!

I had first heard from Leah through email. She was inquiring about a certain wedding date, BUT not for herself--for her sister. She was helping her sister out with wedding planning. Leah too was engaged but she already had a wedding photographer booked. So I photographed her sister's wedding in March (Elizabeth+Ben), Leah contacted me shortly after and told me her photographer didn't workout and wanted me to be her wedding photographer--I was super stoked! As you can tell they are the most adorable couple ever! So fun and silly together. They make each other laugh and laugh and laugh..oh and they make each other laugh. It's so cute to watch. So happy I get to capture their wedding in August.
