Not a cloud in the sky in Hudsonville when we arrived at the church. Jess Furrow (who helped me out for the first time with this wedding, check out her link on my website) and I got started right away as the girls were already doing their make-up and getting ready for the big day. From the very beginning, everyone was WONDERFUL to work with, the attendants, the family, and especially the bride and groom. Everyone was focused on the big day and made sure we had more than enough time to get all sorts of great photographs.
One of the coolest things we learned during our time prior to the ceremony was that Joan's mother, Mary, made EIGHT of the dresses worn by the girls in the wedding: the four bridesmaid dresses, Joan's beautiful wedding dress, two for the flower girl and her baby sister, as well as Mary's own. This woman is talented! Check out her work below. After the wedding, we headed to Grand Valley State University to do some photos at the alumni house. One of the wedding party's favorite shots was our jumping photos (see them below!). We had so much fun doing those, we did it twice.
I'd like to thank Joan and Chris so much for hiring Jenna Rose Photography for their wedding. They were the very first couple to hire me who hadn't met me before we talked about their wedding. Not to mention they even recommended me to a friend, so thanks to the both of you! Congratulations and have a wonderful life together!
