DENNIS AND BERNADETTE...

An amazing November day... and one that Robby and I were especially attached too. We made our way back up to Edgerton, Kansas to not only shoot Bernie's wedding who is a friend of mine from a season of working with her at an adorable little Kansas City Coffee shop, but we also got the chance to revisit the site where we got married.  The most magical place Mildale Farms.  So all day while we were watching Dennis and Bernie engage each other with such beautiful love, we were also swept up in all the nostalgic memories of our sweet May day... (which i promise one day to share some of those amazing images with you, not only will it give you a peek into one of our forever favorite days, but it will also show off the incredible talent of some of our great friends Jonathan and Melissa Helser with Wide-Eyed Photography out in North Carolina...). It was so fun to run around the farm with them and play in lots of the same places we played on our wedding day, and explore other ones that we just didn't have time for... 

Here are a few of our favorites...


Mildale farm is made up of hundreds of acres of land and this barn along with two guest houses also available for rent if you choose to rent out the place for the whole weekend of your wedding... this beautiful barn is where Bernie and Dennis had both their ceremony and their reception....
.

they chose to see each other beforehand and it is always a weighty honor to be allowed in for the first moment a bride and groom see each other...


we lucked out and got the most amazing November day...


can't get enough of that blue sky and those red flowers...





we even had enough time to steal away and get some of just Bernie in the midst of the crazy landscape... such a beautiful bride...






















Robby and I could not stop making eye contact through the entire ceremony because neither of us could believe how amazing the light was... it literally made Bernie glow...




another one of our assistants :)...



in the middle of the ceremony they had their family come to the front and gather around them to pray for them... really sweet moment...

this kiss reminds me of Serendipity for some reason, i love it...
and i always love when a couple has enough time to sneak away for a moment after the ceremony to really soak in what just happened, their moment just happened to be surrounded by a beautiful sunset in the midst of an incredible backdrop. 


lots of fun dancing...
