You could not have picked a more beautiful day than today! The temperature was perfect, the sun was beaming, the sky was bright blue, and Laura and Shawn looked awesome! Laura and Shawn grew up down the street from each other in Columbus NJ, a beautiful rural area of south Jersey. The ceremony and reception took place in Shawn’s sprawling back yard. His parents had constructed an elaborate gazebo for the ceremony to take place in. A little further out on the property was a tent, which was perfect for today’s weather! This was such a great wedding to be a part of, I just love back yard weddings! So, about two weeks before the wedding, I get this email from Laura asking if I thought it would be cool if we went to a sunflower field for some photos before the ceremony. After I mopped up the drool off my keyboard, I promptly responded with an emphatic YES! I mean duh! Thanks for a great day guys, enjoy your time in Saint Lucia!
Since I knew we would be going to the sunflower field later, I made a point of getting a ring shot at the house using a sunflower (part of the bouquet Shawn sent over to Laura in the morning).
Shawn and a bee looking cool in the sunflower field. If you look on the right side of this photo, just above the trees in the background, you may see a tiny spec. I almost cloned this out until I realized it’s actually a bee, and it also happens to be in focus too, so I left him in there.
Check out Laura’s boots!
My favorite of the day!
