These two, Jeremy and Sidney, had one of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever witnessed, and honestly, I wasn’t surprised in the least. I’ve known Sidney for some time now, and she has this rare combination of kindness and grace that instantly draws people in. It’s easy to see why Jeremy is so in love with her. I had the absolute pleasure of capturing their engagement photos—still some of my favorite shots to this day. They were both stunning during that session, and it gave us a great opportunity to bond and practice different poses, which made things so natural on their wedding day.

As their wedding day approached, I couldn’t wait to see Sidney again, this time as a bride. Watching her prepare with her bridesmaids was such a special moment. Surrounded by her closest friends, Sidney was pampered and polished until she looked nothing short of radiant. The joy in the room was palpable, and her calm, gentle spirit just filled the space.

Before the ceremony, we managed to capture so many breathtaking pre-wedding photos at the Livingston's home. Their property is a photographer's dream, nestled right by the river with a yard that could easily be mistaken for a lush garden. The light was perfect, the setting serene, and it provided the ideal backdrop for these two. We made sure to keep Jeremy and Sidney from seeing each other until the ceremony, adding to the excitement of the day. Their "first look" as Sidney walked down the aisle was incredibly emotional—one of those moments you feel so privileged to witness.

The celebration continued at the Younger Cove, one of my absolute favorite venues, especially for fall weddings. There’s just something magical about the sunsets there during this season—the colors melt across the sky like they were painted just for the couple. Sidney’s grand entrance was unforgettable—she arrived at the ceremony in the back of her grandfather’s vintage car, with her grandparents seated up front. It was such a special and personal touch, honoring her family heritage while setting the perfect tone for what was to come.

The ceremony itself was held with the dramatic cliffs behind them, creating a breathtaking backdrop as they said their vows. When they were finally pronounced husband and wife, the energy shifted from serene and emotional to joyful and celebratory. They kicked off the reception in style—delicious tacos were served, laughter echoed around the venue, and the dance floor was packed with friends and family all night long.

It was truly a day to remember, filled with love, laughter, and a deep sense of connection. I feel so honored to have been a part of their journey, from their engagement shoot to their wedding day, capturing these moments that will be treasured for a lifetime.
