oh i just LOVE these two! last time you saw them, they were students. they’ve since graduated (again) from iu and are both working in indy. it all came back to bloomington a couple weeks ago when amanda and brian’s family and friends watched them say “i do” in a tearful, heartfelt ceremony a rose well house on indiana university’s campus and partook in a fabulous celebration inside alumni hall at the indiana memorial union.

alysha jarvis from i.d.entity hair design did a wonderful job with the girls’ hair and nikki brown totally killed it with makeup. flowers by cathy teeters tied it all together beautifully.

a+b, i can’t thank you enough for the pleasure of capturing your day. your love, enthusiasm and kindness is infectious. i consider myself lucky to have been a small part of your day with your amazing family and friends!

seriously, with these colors! #onbrand

great shot, mariya!

i love this imperfect, but perfect, photo mariya grabbed post-ceremony.

after the ceremony amanda was on a mission. to kilroys.

“we forgot id’s, but we’re all old enough to tell you what kilroys USED to look like.” also can we take a small moment to praise the 5d mark iii and it’s ability to shoot like a boss at an iso of 6400?!

what do you do when you have a case of the never-ending leaky eyes? sunglasses.

i’m not really one to instigate silly photos and i rarely show them, but these were too fun and beautiful not to!

big thanks to mariya merkley for assisting me!
