A lovely rustic wedding.

A high school friend and I reconnected via Twitter recently. My sister told me she lived in Ithaca. I looked her up and was happy to see that she was enjoying a wonderful life here in central New York with a beautiful family and satisfying career. She mentioned that two of her friends were looking for a photographer to document their upcoming wedding. I was hired by the couple, spent a few hours shooting their special day, and got to see my friend again. It has been over ten years! Ah, time sure flies. It was absolutely wonderful to work with this family. They're fun, genuine, and laid back. My kind of people. Their daughters are a joy to be around and to photograph. It was a gorgeous early autumn Saturday full of sunshine and happiness. The wedding was held across the street from Lake Cayuga. There was a fabulous view from the dining room.

The event was packed with friends and family. Children played in the grass. Everything was lovely.
