Some connections, much like love, are just instant and effortless. When I first met with Michelle and Martin, I think we all felt this instant kinship. Like we had known each other forever. Their warm, kind hearts and their beaming smiles fill every room they’re in with so much love and joy. For that reason, every moment I’ve shared with them has been truly wonderful. Their Arlington Estate wedding as very calm and relaxed, but also intimate and full of excitement, lots of emotion, love, constant smiles, tears of joy, and blessings.
The weather was perfect, with barely a cloud in the sky. Michelle and Martin, surrounded by their loved ones, stood in a dramatic and light-filled open space to promise everlasting love for one another. It was full of emotion and it touched my heart.
Their wedding was the perfect backdrop for their day. This venue is both modern and sophisticated, but it also overlooks an expansive private pond and luscious greenery. Since they had chosen a weekday for their celebration, they lucked out with the entire property to themselves. We were able to take so many stunning editorial photos in so many incredible locations and with the most perfect amount of warm, natural light. It was one of the key reasons their day was filled with such ease and elegance.
The celebration came to an end on perfectly manicured grounds at the Arlington Estate — dancing away under cotton-candy skies till the sunset, over the horizon. The way Michelle & Martin look at each other, their walk and wedding, the light, the people — every second, every moment was an inspiration.
