pauline + josh | thomas birkby house wedding

Untitled-5
Pauline and Josh are highschool sweethearts. And while she was getting ready to marry him, Pauline talked about how she knew. She just knew in her heart, even when she was so young, that Josh would be hers forever. I love that assurance. Their story just makes me smile. And celebrating with them last Saturday was such a joy!

Pauline and Josh were married at the Thomas Birkby House, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day...

Recently, I've found that I get a little choked up at some point each time that I photograph a wedding. Honestly, It's kind of embarrassing, but it's true. It's often the moment when the bride and groom are introduced into the reception and everyone jumps to their feet to cheer for them. Last Saturday, it was definitely when Pauline danced with her dad...

The black and white of Pauline dancing with her dad made me tear up a little. I loved the picture of her dancing and it looks like her wine is about to slosh out of her glass. Great job, Kristen!
