We pulled up to Sojourn church at 2:30 on Saturday, November 10th, for an afternoon turned evening of laughter, smiles, fun, and mostly love :) It was a perfectly warm and partly cloudy day. Not a chance of rain, and evidence of a wedding sprinkled the premises - white paper lanterns hanging from the top of a white tent, lantern hooks dug into the ground in front of the church, a man carrying a large cardboard box full of flowers... a happy scene, indeed!
I walked into the bridal suite to see the dress, shoes, and jewelry already in place before the girls' showed up, giving me the opportunity to snap some detail shots before everyone arrived. The stunning bride and bridesmaids drove up shortly after to put on their dresses and slip on their shoes in time for some fun pre-wedding photos. I just about died when the flower girls walked up wearing to-tos and silver Toms!! My goodness - heaven on earth! So precious :)
The sanctuary was simply but perfectly decorated with Ball jars and tea lights dangling from the tops of white chairs, a ribbon curtain and twinkle lights hung from the ceiling providing a delicate backdrop for the alter. It was all smiles when Amber walked down the aisle to meet Drew, and all smiles from that moment on :)
I have had the tremendous pleasure of photographing several couples and even a little newborn from Sojourn, and I have Amber and I's mutual friend, Chelsea, to thank for introducing me to and welcoming me into such an amazing community of people. Everyone that I have met from Sojourn has been so genuine and real - living out their faith in the biggest ways :)
Amber and Drew, thank you for the honor of photographing such an amazing day in your lives. I pray that now, as a united couple, you will continue to live out the gospel in even bigger ways as one :)
Twinkle lights and to-tos,
HK
