I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with the incredible Jennifer of Jennifer Murphy Beauty for almost as long as I've been doing weddings, so when she asked me to photograph her & Pat's upcoming wedding, of course I gave her a resounding YES! These two are sweet as pie, and it's clear how perfect they are for each other. Of course, we had to include their sweet poodle Daisy, who absolutely worked the camera like the diva she is (let's be real - all 3 of this gang photograph beautifully, they're a gorgeous group).

Read MoreCan you believe these bright, sunny images were taken in November? The weather this winter has been so unpredictable, you have to make the best of it when you can!

Read MoreMandy and Stephen had such a sweet and sunny September wedding with beautiful Long Lake as their backdrop! These two kept it traditional, forgoing the idea of a first look and saving it for Mandy’s walk down the aisle.
