Mo Ghadh Bithbhuan (my love forever) ~ Stephanie and Jarrod’s Wedding

On Saturday I photographed my first wedding of 2014 and I couldn’t have asked for a better one to start the year with.

I had such an amazing time photographing Stephanie and Jarrod’s wedding and I know that it will be remembered by so many wonderful family and friends for years to come. From the sweet and personalized details, to the adventurous bus ride from the ceremony to the reception, this was such a fun day and I cannot wait to share some images with you.

Surrounded by their wonderful family and friends, there was so much love in the room and I know that everyone felt it.
The rain didn’t stop us from having an amazing time and capturing some really lovely images that will be cherished by so many of your loved ones. Congratulations again Steph and Jarrod and thank you for braving the rain drops for some of the shots – it was totally worth it!

Inside the iconic Museum of Nature. We had tons of spectators while we were taking these portraits and everyone had big smiles on their faces when they realized that there was a wedding happening soon!

This wedding party was a blast. Everyone was so wonderful, including the amazing kiddos who had the best booming laughs I have ever heard (I think the entire museum probably heard them laughing!)

To celebrate their Scottish heritage, Stephanie and Jarrod had a bagpiper at their ceremony as well as Stephanie wore the tartan of her family’s clan. After their ceremony, she switched to the tartan of Jarrod’s family to celebrate their union!

This year marks some pretty awesome changes to elizabeth&jane photography weddings and I am thrilled to have the wonderful Nicole along as my assistant during the day. Nicole has been my production assistant since last summer, and now she will also be assisting at most weddings during the year!

To commemorate our first wedding together, we took advantage of Stephanie and Jarrod’s photo booth and snapped a photo of us together.
