This day way packed full of personal touches that made it a truly unforgettable experience. Mariel literally made her own wedding dress!!! And Nick even composed a song to surprise her with as they walked down the "aisle". With all of their friends and family each contributing to make their day even more special.

Wedding on top of Mountain in the Catskills | Windham Mountain Ski Resort
Finding someone that truly understands you and that can make you laugh everyday isn't exactly an easy task. So if you've found a person like that, hold them tight and enjoy every minute of it.
For those of us who have been dreaming of what our wedding day may look like since you were younger, we imagine where it would be, and dream about the person we will marry. But then there's our parents, silblings, and close friends we always had just expected would be there to walk you down the aisle or stand there by your side.
And then this messy thing called life happens. Things like illness, accidents, suicide, and overdose can steal these precious people from our lives. Loss is always an inevitable part of loving someone.
But as you marry this person who is beyond anything you had ever even dreamed of, just remember that you can still bring a part of those you lost with you on your wedding day. From jewelry, patches, stand-in flowers, and even share there ashes back to the places they loved most. They will always be standing there in spirit, prouder than even.

I'll admit it. I often get more emotionally attached to my couples than they may realize. Not only do I get to spend the most time with you on the most special day of your life, but at the end of the day, the other vendors pack up and head home. But I get to spend the next few weeks to a few months seeing your faces on a daily basis! It is a rather intimate and special thing spending that much time with someone, even digitally. And I often get really emotional while editing these films. This was one of those cases. When you see a couple that in love... it sets an example of the good in the world and shows us the possibilities in life. To a lifetime of happiness and love... Congratulations @mn11 @jacvoyt ❤❤❤

He Knew She Was THE ONE! . . Engagement Adventure in the Mountains
.
.
As we transition into the new season, I get super excited about all the upcoming adventures that are planned and especially those that aren't planned! But I find it's good to reflect on all the cool things I've got to do and explore over the past several months.
Getting to do an Adventure Engagement Session with my friends Mariel and Nick was definitely one of those fun times. We had such a good time and they were even game for climbing a mountain, on snowshoes, for the first time, knowing we were going to need headlamps to hike out, but they killed it and had smiles on the whole time! :)
When we do these sessions, it's more than me just pointing a camera at you and expect you to know what to do. My goal is to be there as a guide on the most fun, memorable day ever in the coolest locations. I set you up with everything you need to be comfortable and just enjoy your time with each other. And I focus on keeping things light, and casual. You can just relax, be who you are and enjoy these beautiful, intimate experiences together.
.
.
...It's like a mini vacation/date day
.
.
I offer these sessions within my wedding film collections, or just as it's own thing. And you don't have to be engaged. Whether you're a just a couple, friends, married, single....whatever! It doesn't matter.
.
.
Let's go explore and tell your story!

His VOWS to her are SO SWEET! / Intimate Farm Wedding in the Catskill Mountains
There are so many different ways to express how much you mean to each other. And during the ceremony some couple may choose the, "repeat after me" method (and nothing wrong with that). But I've always been a firm believer in writing out your vows and reading them to each other. You can read them in private, or during the ceremony. And if you want to really make the tears flow, try exchanging vows and recite them to each other 😢 It can make your day so much more personable and memorable. These are the words you're going to want to look back on years from now. You will want them on paper and you want to hear them being said.
.
.
And that's one of the things that makes wedding films so powerful! Being able to secure those words from that day is HUGE! So when Sadie mentioned that Hunter had lost his vows... I had them covered. 🙌

Whether you're going to elope in the mountains or planning a more traditional wedding, make sure you set aside time to just stop and enjoy time with each other.
.
.
So many couples are rushed through their day, from one event to the next and never get to truly soak it all in. This is YOUR day! And it goes so fast. You are going to want to look back and remember these special, intimate moments. This be accomplished by just adding a little more time to a portrait session, or your own time completely alone. Be sure to work with your planner and/or photographer to make sure you get this time. You will be so thankful you did!
