Black and Grey Wedding at Castleton Farms

The wind wasn’t the only thing that blew us away at Alexis & Logan’s black, grey, and gold accented wedding at Castleton Farms! Just look at their radiant beauty. LOOK! It’s unreal.

If professional wedding photographers have any skill, it’s making the unexpected work in the couple’s favor. On this day it was making the wind our friend! And if our AR Couples and their bridal parties have anything in common, it’s their ability to trust us and be up for anything! Thanks to Alexis’ long veil choice and keeping SUCH a good attitude, we were able to make some drop-dead gorgeous, romantic portraits that feel ethereal. They’re some of our favorites…ever!

The rest of their day was equally classy and fun! All the pretty little details were at the ceremony and reception, but Alexis & Logan’s ability to have fun made everything shine brighter. By the time the dance floor opened, their spunk for life was somehow topped by the youngest on the guest list!!! We’ve NEVER seen kids so active on the dance floor for as long as these kiddos were. A handful of kids LITERALLY dominated the dance floor with Alexis, Logan, and their adult friends circling around them cheering them on! It didn’t take long for the eldest of the crowd to get moving too! It was pure joy to be a part of and editing those images put the biggest smiles on our faces.

Alexis, Logan, and family – we hope you love these previews of your Big Day. We feel very special to have been a part of it and consider you friends. Kim, get those tissues ready. You’re going to need them! Travis, your Father & Daughter First Look was so tender. You’ll be grabbing for Kim’s tissues too! Arlene, as a boy mom, I hope that my son looks at me the way Logan did during your Mother and Son Dance. It was beautiful to witness. Stan – you did it. You raised a fine man and he found a good woman! Congrats to all the Hicks & McCarter families!
