Pierce and Sarah, pt. II | Lynchburg Wedding Photographer

These two were made for each other. As they say, opposites attract, and Pierce and Sarah are a beautiful example of this. They met and started dating six years prior to their wedding day so they have been through a lot together. Sarah loves Pierce's outgoing personality and her sweet demeanor balances perfectly with his zest for life. Together they LOVE baseball (so much so their cake topper included them wearing Red Sox jerseys!), their sweet dogs, and simply enjoying each other's company. All of this was evident at their wedding between the personal touches throughout the day and the way they enjoyed one another's company during every shared moment. Is there another word for fairytale? Because I feel like I have seriously overused it to describe this wedding. But, you guys, it truly was. The light sparkled perfectly on this couple. There was a horse and carriage... a prince and his princess... love and marriage. Just... perfection.

The rest of their wedding day story unfolds...

And they lived happily ever after!!

Another double wedding post coming right up! Sarah and Pierce had such a beautiful day that I cannot for the life of me narrow down their pictures! I shouldn't be surprised, though. When I first arrived at Glencliff Manor and connected with the coordinator on site there, Teresa, it was a cloudy day. I said something along the lines of "just crossing my fingers for clear sky!" Teresa immediately repsonded "Oh. This is Glencliff, it doesn't rain here. We have had one wedding rained out in 29 years." Well... I am beyond grateful at how right she was. Not only did it NOT rain at all - but the sun came through the clouds as soon as the ceremony started. It was like nature's blessing on the beautiful couple! And seriously, I follow almost all of the local photographers on some sort of social media and while they were all sharing instagrams and sneak peeks of cloudy, rainy wedding days I shared this:

I have been waiting WEEKS to share this beautiful country bridal session with you all. I can't wait anymore, so I am sharing on a Sunday! (A rare weekend post!) Not only is Sarah absolutely stunning, but she has the most gentle demeanor as well. She was a joy to work with as we captured some stunning bridal portraits. The anticipation of her wedding day was thick in the air and as we walked the grounds of Glencliff Manor for the first part of her session I couldn't help but catch the bug! Their wedding last night at Glencliff (and I seriously cannot say enough about the incredible service at this venue!) was just dreamy. A perfect fairytale wedding. I will be sharing a sneak peek of the wedding on Facebook later today - so check the SLP Facebook page in just a little bit! In the meantime, here are a few of my favorite shots from Sarah's country bridal session!

Ahhhh.... bridal sessions! I LOVE them but they kill me because I can't share the images until months after the sessions! I had one of my all-time favorite bridal shoots this past weekend and I HAVE to share a sneak peek with you guys. As we walked and talked, I listened intently to the details they have lined up for this wedding. Can I just say... my country-girl heart is all a-flutter! And come on... with bridal shoes like these... I can't hardly wait!
