I recently was lucky to shoot a wedding that was less like work and more like a lot of fun.  I have known the Pappert family for some time now and have grown to love them like family.  I met Cindy, Ben's mom, through work years ago.  I have heard her family stories about the boys throughout the years.  She means the world to me, so photographing her son's wedding was something I really looked forward to...

...then I met Jen.  She is a perfect addition to their family.  She is sweet, fun, and funny.  I knew the wedding was going to be amazing - and it was.

 

I can't say enough about her bridesmaids.  There is no mistaking why she chose them to be in her wedding.  We had an absolute blast with all of them and from the looks of things; I think they had a good time too!

 

 

 

There were a few tears...

 

 

{sorry to post that one, Jen...but I loved the emotion.  It makes me tear up just looking at it.}

 

The guys were equally fun...and funny.

 

 

The Brothers.

 

 

The love birds that made this wonderful family...

 

 

The ceremony and reception was held at Parkview Field where our local Tin Caps play baseball.  It ended up being a wonderful spot and the weather could not have been better. 

 

 

 

Did I mention that I adore this bridal party?!!

 

 

 

Everyone had THE best attitude.  Even when the requested "jump picture" had to be done ten times at least. 

 

 

 

The reception was a lively event.  Ben's dad gave a great speech, and Ben's brothers also killed it on their speech.

 

 

Jen's dad is no longer with us, so she danced with Ben's dad for the father/daughter dance. 

 

 

The way Jen and Ben looked at each other was infectious.  Everywhere I looked all day people were smiling and laughing.  It was a true testament to their love and the support they had from their family and friends. 

 

 

Love!

 

 

Ben and Jen, thank you so much for letting me photograph your big day.  It was wonderful, just like the two of you.  Best wishes now and forever.  You are both loved more than you know.
