Autumn and Joe’s Wedding: my first wedding

I have photographed maternity and family photos, but I took a huge step this last Friday photographing my cousin’s (once removed) wedding. They were very trusting, and allowed me to shoot their wedding. It was frightening and exhilarating all at the same time. I will share more on my experience and what I learned in another post. But right now I’m going to share some of my favorite shots from the wedding…okay 31 of them, and that is narrowed down. All you expert photographers out there, don’t be too critical. Remember I’m still a wannabe.
