Valerie and Tom were married on a sunny day in June a few weeks ago and everything about their day was bright and beautiful. From the moment we met with Valerie and her four sisters at their parent’s home, it was clear that this would be a special day.

Valerie was a stunning bride and I love this shot of her by Alex. It shows her sweet and quiet side.

He also captured this one of Tom when we met up with him at the church.

Their ceremony was heart-warming. I love getting to see their faces close-up when I’m able to stand to the far left or right of the altar. It’s so nice to see all of the details, especially the emotion as they say their vows.

We stopped off at Squaw Run Park for some portraits on our way to Riverside Landing in Oakmont. Valerie and Tom are so much fun to photograph. They’re so sweet with one another and it really shows. We had a great time at their engagement session too! And their reception at Riverside Landing was no different—such a fun celebration. It was nice to see their family and friends share in the love. What a happy day!

Congrats, Valerie and Tom! Many blessings to you and your marriage! (And many more photos to come!)
