06.16.10 ~ Weddings ~ posted by Rachel

Amy and Matthew were high school sweethearts. They've been together for nine years. Yes, nine years! You would think they had just met, after seeing how they interact with each other. Every touch is special. Every glance of the eye is like the first time. It was said more than once that day that they are the couple to model other relationships after. What an amazing compliment! It proves a few things. First, love is real. Second, Amy and Matthew are in love. Third, this very much in love couple is surrounded by very supportive and wonderful family and friends.

The day started at the Marriott City Center in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina. Amy was radiant and her yellow shoes fit her personality - young, fun, fresh, happy.





Lindsey, our fabulous editor and album designer, assisted me for this wedding. While I was taking pictures of Amy getting her dress on, she took all the guys out and got this shot. Ah-mazing, Lindsey! I love all the shadows and light pouring in from different areas.

You might be wondering why I decided to have Lindsey shoot in a parking garage. Well, besides the fact that it is totally rad, it had poured rain the day before and the forecast was calling for even more that day. This was our backup location, but we got so lucky! It only rained that day while we were indoors. Every time we stepped outside to take a picture, it had stopped raining. What amazing luck!


"Did you know we've been together for nine years?" Amy said as I walked her to her first sight with Matthew. "I can't wait to see him!"




After a few minutes alone, Amy and Matthew walked around the town square with us to get a few couple shots. There was a cute little doughnut shop right by the hotel and I just couldn't resist.



Obviously Amy and Matthew couldn't either. ;)






There was also a little art museum on the same block. The clerk thought I was a little nuts when I asked if I could take a picture through the glass. I allowed him to think so so that I could get this shot.




I mentioned before that it poured rain the day before. Well, their first ceremony location was flooded. I was expecting this couple to be a little bummed at least. But they just wanted to be married. It didn't matter where or how it happened. It was enough to just be together. What an amazing testament!




The light in Caffe Luna was really beautiful that day.



Do you see that look?! They glanced at each other all day like that. Amy is the cutest little winker.






LOVE Amy's yellow sunglasses. LOVE them.


Proof positive that we have the best clients in the world. I asked Amy and Matthew to go into the kitchen for the shot on the right. The entire kitchen staff stared at them while they gave me the stone cold, sexy face. Yay for fun!!




Lindsey told me that this cutie pie couple told her that the thing they were most looking forward to on their wedding day was sitting down at this table for two so they could have a little date. I hope they enjoyed it!







Cheers to Amy and Matthew! It was an honor to be your wedding photographer!!!
