Today is the one-month anniversary for Nathan and Ashley. They had an amazing wedding at Heritage Hill, and we're excited to share much more from their wedding day in a blog post coming soon. So stay tuned! 

Until then, we'd thought we'd share one highlight that may otherwise get overlooked by flashier photos of the bridal party and artsy images of the two of them: the wedding vows. We go to a lot of weddings, naturally. All are quite special in their own way, and for Nathan and Ashley's big day, one thing that really stood out was the warmth and laughter between the two of them. Nathan is a stand-up comedian (for real!), and it shows. During his vows, he had a presence that few others are blessed with, and his vows were an unmatched mix of humor and heart. 

With the photo-journalistic style we try to utilize, simply pointing a camera at Nathan reading off a piece of paper wouldn't do the moment justice. 

He had everyone laughing, and then everyone wiping away tears - so it was our hope (and responsibility, really) to capture that emotion. Here's a little glimpse of our take on it, starting with capturing the vows laying on a hotel table (we're always on the hunt for small details) long before the ceremony, to Nathan putting the finishing touches on his thoughts, to him delivering the vows, to both Ashley's and the wedding guests' reaction to the funny - and touching - words.

Hope you can feel the sweep of emotions as you scroll through these! Either way, stay tuned for more images from an awesome wedding!
