Rebecca + Nick's The Barn at Shady Lane Wedding with Leigh Ann Goodin Photography • leighanngoodin.com

We popped outside of The Barn at Shady Lane to snap a couple bridal portraits before Rebecca + Nick headed back into their reception. The golden light was a surprise. No one expected it, since it had been overcast and breezy all day. It was magical, like the sun popping behind in behind the trees was just made for them. It was the perfect backdrop to finish out a perfect wedding day.

The bride and groom might as well have been models. The purple and white florals adorned with greenery were the perfect colors to accent the barn. The bridal party was full of laughter and friendship. Family came from near and far to watch these two become one. Even the food from The Happy Catering Company couldn’t have been any more delicious! The couple read personal vows to one another at the first look, which had me in tears behind my camera.

Rebecca + Nick, your love for one another is something special. Something to be treasured. Never forget those intimate vows your promised to one another at your first look. Never stop smiling at each other. And never stop serving one another with glad hearts. Thank you for allowing me to serve you on your big day. It was so much fun to capture your joy!
