Asira & Reji's Fort Wayne Wedding

Asira and Reji come from the opposite side of the world and yet it was in the heartland of the US where they first met. Asira came to Fort Wayne from Tajikistan and Reji came from India. The joyful love and diverse cultures they bring together form an undeniably beautiful and intriguing union. I couldn't help but smile the entire day as I watched them interact with each other, their family and their friends. Joy just RADIATED off of everyone's faces! This wedding was a true celebration of marriage and faith!

To start off the day, we took advantage of the numerous romantic settings at Lakeside Rose Garden. We had tons of fun and everyone was in great spirits.















Next, we headed over to First Wayne Street United Methodist Church for a fabulous wedding ceremony.



Lastly, we headed over to the Atrium in the Hilton Downtown Fort Wayne for a VERY lively reception.






It was such an honor to be part of your day, Asira and Reji.

Justine's High Fashion Bridal Portrait Photo Shoot

I just love Justine...always have always will. She's one of the most genuine (and genuinely beautiful) women you'll ever meet. We had SO much fun yesterday running all over downtown Fort Wayne. Her versatile beauty, vibrant spirit and AMAZING blue eyes are a true honor to capture with my camera.

And, I could NOT have done it without my amazing makeup and hair team of Vanessa and Amber. SERIOUSLY ladies, you rocked this!

Here is a video of just a few of my favorites selected from the hundreds of pictures taken during Justine's high fashion bridal portrait photo shoot:

Robert & Stephanie's Wedding at Foster Park

They've been together forever it seems. I had the wonderful honor of photographing Robert and Stephanie's engagement portraits at Fort Wayne's beautiful Foster Park so it was no surprise when they chose its Bridal Glen for their wedding as well. It's a great wedding venue that is sheltered from the public in its own private floral nook. I loved shooting there and hope that I get even more outdoor weddings in the future.

Robert and Stephanie's endearing love for one another made the lightbulb fire off in my head a hundred times over so I was able to get some wonderfully romantic and intimate wedding portraits of the two of them. Thank you for your trust and for making me part of your day Mr. and Mrs. W. : )
