As a wedding photographer, I get to witness and experiance real life love stories. Kristine and Blake’s love story is one that you think only exists in romantic comedies. Kristine, from South Jersey and Blake, from Indiana met in Nashville while on vacation. Three years later, Blake got down on one knee in the same bar where they met in Nashville. Blake and Kristine are effortless as a couple, because it’s just right. Spending the day with them on their wedding, felt like we had known them for years. We actually met Kristine and Blake when Kristine was a bridesmaid in one of our favorite couple’s wedding, Julie and Todd. It was great to see Julie and Todd again who have since welcomed a new baby boy. I’m not sure what it is with this group of friends, but they sure are great in front of the camera. Blake and Kristine were once again… effortless. The photos of them just came together perfectly, and I can’t be more excited about it. As soon as I saw the location, my head started spinning with ideas for their photos, and Kristine and Blake brought the ideas to life… This wedding was held at Kristine’s parents house in Mullica Hill, NJ. When I pulled up to the house, I was blown away. We could have photographed there for days! Every photo you see here was taken right on or around their property. The outdoor ceremony was held in the front yard in front of a gazebo and pond followed up by a great tent reception. Kristine’s dad even had a fire going out back. Both Kristine and Blake’s families were so welcoming and so much fun to be around. I am grateful to have met everyone at this wedding, and Kristine and Blake for choosing us to be part of their amazing day.
