Ashlee and Travis had an intimately beautiful summer ceremony at The Pinery in Black Forrest which of course came along with the freely offered afternoon thunderstorm..... but I took advantage of the moody clouds and used them to create a romantic backdrop for the day.
I told Ashlee that she looked like a Russian ballerina, not sure if she understood what I meant. I'm not even sure I can back that up with reasons, but she just has that porcelain beauty that belongs in a classical ballet, twirling on a huge spotlit stage... anyone else agree?
The ceremony was quick but heartfelt and so lovely to photograph. We took some time after the ceremony and drove a couple minutes up the road to an open field and snapped away. These two were so fun to work with. They both informed me of how unphotogenic they thought they would be... but I have quickly come to the realization that when someone forewarns me with that statement, it almost always means the opposite,... as you will plainly see in the following photos. :)
Thanks Travis and Ashlee! What an exquisite wedding to have been a part of.
