Kelsie & Chris | Married!!

June 21, 2011

I first met Kelsie and Chris about a year ago when they asked me to take some engagement pictures. One thing that was obvious right away, was how in love they were! The way they both look at each other speaks 1000 words, and you can’t help but just smile being around them. We got together again last month to go over some wedding details and get a few more pictures. I couldn’t wait to capture their special day, and I feel so fortunate to have been a part of it.

I met up with Kelsie and her bridesmaids at her Aunt Kris’s house where they were getting ready.

Kelsie not only did all her bridesmaids’ make up, but she did her own too!I’d say she did an amazing job! And…no photoshopping on those eyes, they are all hers~GORGEOUS!! 🙂Then we headed over to the venue. The award winning Antheia Ballroom. It was raining, so thankfully my camera has a rain jacket!A little bubbly from the Ballroom. 🙂 Sidenote-how cute that Kelsie’s colored tanks are her wedding colors!?Loved all the tanks Kelsie had for her and her bridesmaids. TWO pairs of hot shoes 🙂Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue…Now, over to the groom’s room…There’s only a few shots, since most of them were in their boxers 🙂 And, yes, Houston got those shots!They decided to do a first look, and I am SO glad they did!! It rained all day, and there was only one little area that was covered. After the ceremony, that area was PACKED with the guests! I have no idea where we would have done portraits had we not done them before. LOVE first looks!!!Their kids are going to have some BEAUTIFUL eyes!!Sadly, Kelsie’s dad passed away when she was 8. There were little touches throughout the wedding and reception that honored his memory. The room was quickly switched from ceremony to reception.Then there was dancing, dancing, dancing. Loved it! A little outfit change for the send off. Thank you both again so much for allowing me to take part in your special day. Have fun in Jamaica!!
