Christina Vaughan Photography: Shane and Shelly: Wedding Day

This past weekend, I photographed my first wedding! There were lots of nerves to deal with as I stepped into the church Saturday morning, but they were soon an afterthought as I was greeted with warm welcomes from a family I've known for years and the sight of my best friend, who was also a bridesmaid. My brother-in-law, also an aspiring photographer, drove 4+ hours to help me with the task at hand.

The very best thing about being present at the wedding of Shelly and Shane was taking part in the emotion of the day. I had to fight back tears on more than one occasion as I watched the tender, sweet interactions between the father-of-the-bride and his daughter, the bride and her children, and of course, the bride and groom on their special day...It was beautiful. I hope that I was able to capture some of that emotion for this wonderful family!
