When John and I arrived at Sinkland Farms for Emily and Tommy’s wedding the skies were bright and blue without a cloud in sight! It seemed like it would be a beautiful day…and it was, despite the rain clouds that started to crowd the skies halfway through the first look. Minutes before the ceremony started, the scariest downpour started…I’m talking wind, lightning, and buckets and buckets of rain. Where a lot of brides would (rightfully so) be anxious or stressed about the storm, Emily was so calm and sweet! They decided to wait out the rain and hopefully hold the ceremony outside as they had planned and about 45 minutes later the skies opened up and the most beautiful sunshine started streaming through the clouds! I loved that they both took the storm in stride…because in life and in marriage storms pop up all of the time and you just have to learn to ride them out.
This wedding was truly a joy to be a part of! Emily and Tommy made John and I feel so welcome…they even insisted we take home favors at the end of the night (and if you know how much I love mason jars, you know I was willing to oblige) and were so willing to be flexible and make time for portraits! Love that!
Emily and Tommy: I wish you both the best and hope you are having an amazing time in ICELAND!! Enjoy a few of my favorites!!
Tommy and Emily chose to wash each others feet during the ceremony as a symbol of their dedication to continue to serve one anothers as husband and wife. It was one of the sweetest moments I’ve ever seen at any wedding ceremony! The look on Tommy’s face as he washed Emily’s feet was so full of love!

That reception venue is gorgeous! I love the lights. The rustic feel of the wedding is beautiful and I adore the choice of flowers! 🙂 Great job!
This wedding is one of the cutest things ever! What a gorgeous place to get married! All their details and color choices went perfect with that venue. All your portraits are so sweet.
Katie, this is sincerely one of my favorite weddings that you’ve shot. The portrait where he is holding the bottom of her dress as they are kissing… ah, my heart!!!
What a sweet wedding. I just love the feet washing ceremony. We wanted to do it, but the theater didn’t want us to splash the stage! Its such a sweet honor. Great shooting.
I was waiting for this post since you posted previews on ig — hands down one of my favorite weddings. Everything looks SO. PERFECT. Love this.
OMG YES! I was so excited to see this wedding since the first sneak peek and you did not disappoint!! Amazing work, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this wedding!
Everything about this wedding is stunning. LOVE it!
Katie, these photos are AMAZING! I’m pretty sure Tommy and I go to your page about 5x/day to look at them and rehash the day. I’m so glad you were there to document the whole thing and so happy with the results! I can’t wait to see everything!
