"I've missed you so much today."

That's what I'll remember from Casey and Kelsey's wedding. Yes, it was beautiful- full of unique details and gorgeous people, but the thing I'll remember most is the genuine, loving connection between Casey and Kelsey. The longer I got to hang around these two, the more I realized that they were both people of the highest quality- and that their love for each other was developed out of a friendship they never wanted to end.

When it was time for their first look, this was the first thing Kelsey said. She'd noticed that Casey had refrained from calling or texting her until that moment- and I think it made their first look extra special. They were finally together- ready to make this commitment!

Their wedding and reception was held at The Legacy and was serviced by some of the best vendors in the area. Here are a few of my favorite images, along with some reflections from Kelsey.

Kelsey wore her grandmother's rings and carried her handkerchief, pictured on the left.

"He still hasn't texted me today..."

This was Kelsey realizing she was about to see her future hubby-

Both notes their first look as the most memorable of the day. 

Kelsey: So, so very special for us. I loved it! It took the pressure off before the wedding and we got to hangout before for a little bit. It was fun!

Casey: When my bride walked down the aisle I was so excited to see her that I kissed her before I was supposed to.

I really feel that this pear tree blossomed just for them that day-

Going over her vows...

These guys wrote some of the best vows I have ever heard.


The ring bearer lost a tooth at the reception- that means more Tooth Fairy money, right?

Casey's wedding ring is one of the coolest I've ever seen-

Birdseed!

Congratulations you guys! It was truly an honor to photograph your day!

Hunter + Amanda were married in Plainview at First United Methodist Church. Since Hunter is a pilot, their reception was held in an airplane hangar, which fit their personalities perfectly. This was a special wedding for me seeing as I've known Amanda for the greater part of my life- and it was cool to get to see their relationship develop. These two are simple, easygoing, and kind. Since my usual second shooter (my friend Shanna) was a bridesmaid, my husband Shawn shot along with me at this one. We had a fantastic day- I interviewed Amanda about her big day and will be sharing some of her thoughts looking back.

The day began at Kadiza Hair Studio- Jessica did a fabulous job as always!

And then we headed to Plainview-

Can you believe baby Atlynn is getting so big?

Hunter + Amanda chose to have a first look. I asked her if she was glad they had and here's what she had to say:

"It was just such a special moment to see each other before the ceremony, because it gave us a chance to see each other and just relax for that moment. From then on, it felt like the day flew by! So it was nice to have the quiet moment before things got busy. Also, having the First Look gave us the opportunity to get some much desired pictures done so we could get straight to our guests after the ceremony. I have no regrets with doing a First Look."

I love this moment between sisters!

Amanda said being with her Dad right before he walked her down the aisle was one of her favorite moments. 

"I'm the youngest of 3 girls so I feel like I'm definitely a 'daddy's girl'. It was just my dad and I in the hall, and it was the first time of the day that I got to see him by ourselves. So I took that opportunity to tell him that I love him (and almost started crying!) But I loved that moment with my dad."

These two made a grand exit in a plane!
