Liz + Ryan
Sunday, January 10, 2010 at 12:01AM Liz and Ryan were certainly a special couple. When Liz and her mom first came to visit me, Liz expressed how important the pictures were going to be to her and Ryan. After talking in length about their wedding day vision, I knew it was going to be something special. Their ceremony and reception was held at the Chrysler Museum, in Norfolk, later in the afternoon, but we got there a bit early so we could use the grounds before beginning. Before starting with the couple's pictures together, we created a "first look," where they could meet each other in private before the ceremony. On top of having a blast with the wedding party, when I walked into the Chrysler, there were so many details I couldn't see straight.;) Liz and her mom had spent about a year creating and making everything. Liz even used one of her favorite books, The Pride and the Prejudice, as their guest book. I saw some really cool stuff. Special thanks to Jeremy Kilgore, with Blue Steel Pro Lighting, for lighting up the joint, DJ Rodney Charles for rocking the night and Cuisine & Co. for a terrific meal. Liz and Ryan, thanks for letting me be a part of your super duper day! Below are just a few of my favorites.
