Steve & Meghan

I had been so looking forward to Steve & Meghan's wedding. This would be my first opportunity to photograph a wedding on the grounds of Swannanoa. I had assisted Lana about 15 years ago in a small wedding there, but this would be the first time that I would hold the camera, and the first time I would actually have the opportunity to shoot inside the mansion.
Steve and Meghan are one of those couples that weren't going to allow little disruptions, like rain, thunder, wind etc... to put a damper (pun intended) on their big day. Thankfully, the downpour held off until just minutes following the garden ceremony. Unfortunately, for me however..this forced me to capture the portraits under the mansion's verandah. This was just a minor glitch, although I would have loved some garden shots, this marble columns and stately architecture allowed for some beautiful photos. As soon as the we wrapped up the portraits, the skies cleared and a beautiful, and rare double rainbow set the backdrop for Steve and Meghan's reception. Beautiful!

How cool are these Jones Soda place settings?? Custom designed with the Steve and Meghan's last name.

A prayerful moment with the Pastor.
