Heather and Jesse are absolute gems! They both are so outgoing and personable, and their wedding day reflected just that. Jesse always knew that he wanted to get married on his grandparent’s property, and so fifty of their closest family and friends came together on a Saturday this past July to celebrate their wedding day! It was such an intimate and emotional time. I loved how the focus was not only on them and their love, but also their family. Every aspect of their wedding showed how much they both value their families! It truly was so amazing to see, and it only showed how selfless and incredible these two are. In honor of Jesse’s grandparents, June and John, they danced to Jonny and June for their first dance song. Isn’t that the sweetest?

Heather is the quintessential Niki Marie bride. When I first met her, she told me she had an obsession with black and white images… right then and there I knew we’d be best friends! Her and Jesse put photography as such a top priority for their wedding day! They set aside two full hours of bride and groom portraits on the day of their wedding. It was AMAZING! We were able to walk around the gorgeous property, and take some incredible portraits. I’m also pretty convinced that these two are secretly models! I can’t get over it. Inside and out Heather and Jesse are one heck of a gorgeous couple. Some of my all time favorite portraits were taken during sunset.. it was a perfect way to end the day!

Heather and Jesse, thank you for inviting me into such an intimate day! You two made me feel like family, and I am so grateful. It’s been such a joy getting to know you both over the last year, and I’m already counting down the days until your anniversary session next year haha!
