Almost 10 years to the day that Nick and Meredith met, they said I do. High School sweethearts are rare these days, but Nick and Meredith have been able to hold on to that love and grow and thrive in it for the last 10 years. Meeting these two you would think they met just yesterday. Their love is still fresh and new and exciting. The way Nick just beams at Meredith, the way they can’t keep their hands off of each other, the sweet way they seem to complete each other, the way Nick cook’s dinner for Meredith almost every night, the way Meredith supports Nick’s “fishing” habit. Everything they do is for each other. So that the other one can relax after a long day at work, so they can laugh and giggle with each other through life’s hard times. I meet so many amazing couples in this career, but I have been so blessed with Nick and Meredith’s friendship these past few months. I have known Meredith since she was a little girl, and through the power of facebook Meredith found me and decided that she wanted to have me photograph their big day! I have never been so moved then when I watched Nick and Meredith, the last song of the evening, dance on the dance floor alone. Just the two of them. Taking in every single sip of their last few moments at the wedding they had worked hard to create. I was emotional because it was an amazing moment to witness, I have never been more thankful for my “job” as I was at that moment. I also couldn’t believe the incredible woman that Meredith has become, and the amazing partner she has chosen to grow old with. Nick and Meredith, your more then clients, your true friends. I am so thankful my camera brought us back together. Love you both, and I hope you enjoy the memories I captured for you all forever.

Nick & Mere have a love for wine, and they got these awesome wine stoppers for their wedding. So I had a little fun with their rings :-)

I love this shot. After this Meredith said “so this is why you have bridesmaids!”. Loved these girls, and its obvious how much they all love Meredith.

While I was hanging out with the Ladies, my awesome second shooter Abbey shot these great images of the Groom and the guys!

Nick & Meredith decided to see each other before hand, to calm their nerves, and to also have a little alone time together, and to take lots of times to get great photos!
