Hilary and Logan

When the bride texts you saying she bought you a sub for lunch you know it’s going to be a good day. When the bride asks where are you going with your food, you can eat with us, you try your hardest to eat like a civilized person. Enough about food. You can tell that Hilary and Logan are head over heels for one another. It’s in the way one lights up when the other says something silly. You can see it when they get super close and whisper sweet (probably nasty) nothings at each other. It can also be seen by scrolling on to see more of this amazing wedding!

A room dedicated to the dress with the perfect amount of ambiance.

Willow Magnolia Beauty working that magic behind both the makeup and hair brush.

Trying to do Logan justice since JCPenny set the bar so high all those years ago.

Mason getting ready while asking me how my daughter was doing <3

Logan bringing the smiles and the tears.

“Just look at Mommy really quick.”

Silly will always trump smiles and smolders.

So I officially have a work husband which makes it awkward because his wife is right next to us. Anyways, one of Dukes Films favorite shots is the head touch with the mother and bride. Here is my photo capture of their pose.

First look with Dad. The way he immediately takes her into his arms.

Everyone smoldering. Also, wHat’s almost as beautiful as these ladies? The flowers by Flourished!!!

First look with Mom. Love how you can read her emotions with just her hands.

Make a kissy face at Logan!

Another bridal portrait because this spot is just perfect.

These two <3

This face when he see’s Hilary for the first time is everything.

Oh yes, Willowbrook Weddings has a new spot on their property. This is their Walk In The Park, and I am so grateful to be the first to capture it!

The way they just giggle with one another.

Now bow to the people.

Sneaking out at dinner time for a sunset with the perfect touch of clouds.

TJ and I getting our steps in because they wouldn’t let us sit on their laps.

The way the hand is pushing him deeper into the kiss.

Dedication to the ones who made it possible.

The whole wedding in one photo is always super hard, but this came out perfect.

I can officially say I have climbed the Everest of photography. Jo, here is your photo of Todd smiling.

The first ones to get married at Willowbrook.

DJ Hype playing the tunes, and while she is Showing us that she can still get low.

I included this photo because Logan was on the dance floor with a cup filled to the brim with candy. Even though it isn’t a drink, I gotta shout out one of my favorite bartenders serving up the night, Last Call with Lauren!

Jess and Kristin singing into the glow sticks all night long.

Running the train!

It’s been years since I have worked with Hilary, but her family has remained close with mine. Watching her niece and nephew grow up has been nothing short of amazing as I see them start blossoming their own personalities. I say this as a segway. Every weekend, on the sidelines, you’ll see Hilary and Logan cheering as the kids play soccer, and I love that. It takes me back to the sandwich at lunch on this wedding day, and all the way back to letting me grub in the nurses station whenever they have a celebration. They love, they care, and I know that this family is just going to get bigger and the loving and caring with grow along with them <3
