Aubrey and Jarod’s wedding day was so fun and relaxed! The perfect combination for a Friday wedding. When Aubrey and I first started talking about her wedding at the Goei Center downtown, she knew she also wanted some type of rural area for her first look and photos of her wedding party. I knew just the place! Riverside Park is such a stunning backdrop for wedding day photos because it is just north of town, right alongside the river and of course, has the most beautiful willow trees on the edge of the pond! So after Aubrey was finished getting ready, we met Jarod under the willow for their first look. We had fun taking more portraits there until we headed into the city for a different backdrop. It wasn’t long until we headed back to the Goei Center for their evening ceremony. Jarod’s reaction to his bride was so sweet. They both kept the energy up at their reception and it was felt by all their friends and family. Congratulations Aubrey + Jarod! <3
