It was so clear to everyone, and the smiles on Samantha and Austen’s faces told it all: this was the day they had been waiting for. Austin’s smile as he walked his mother and father down the aisle. That look of pure, natural joy on Samantha’s face as she said her vows to Austen. Knowing that this day, October 6, 2018, would be the day that both of them would remember forever. The day that united them as one.

Their wedding day started off by each of them reading a letter that they had written for the other. I highly recommend this to my couples because honestly, it’s tough to be away from your soon to be husband/wife! A letter from them lets you hear their voice before your first look, and it is something special to hang on to forever. I know Jon and I both have ours, too!

Weather-wise, it was a chilly day but we absolutely had to go outside to grab pictures! The changing leaves were just too pretty! And fall colors are Samantha’s favorite!

Samantha and Austen, thank you for having us be such a big part of your beautiful day. I know we are all jealous of your honeymoon in Cancun – bring some of that warmth back here, would ya?! 🙂 Enjoy some previews from your gorgeous day!!

Thank you to my amazing second photographer, Alexis Nicole Photography, for joining me for this day! I couldn’t have done it without ya, girl!
