Bri & George's Wedding
I absolutely loved shooting Brianna and George's wedding on Cleveland's own Nautica Queen dinner cruise ship! Sailing is a personal love of mine, so this wedding was a wonderful opportunity to combine two of my favorites: sailing and shooting wedding photography.
The evening started off with a first look with George and Bri. I love these moments where the groom first sees his bride all dolled up! Their love is written all over their face.
Next, we shot family photos in front of the ship. It's important to me (and most couples!) that the bridal photos with the family are prioritized. We also grabbed a few bridal party portraits and portraits with the couples.
After boarding, I took a few detail shots of the rings and accessories, as well as a few casual "getting ready" photos. As guests arrived, there were happy faces to capture from both guests and family.
Bri and George said their vows in front of a crowd of family and friends in an intimate ceremony. They were all smiles as they walked back down the aisle to their reception! The reception included a delicious dinner, cake cutting, first dance, and social hour. You could tell that this wedding was meant to be low key, fun, and intimate, and it absolutely was!
At the end of the night, in that soft golden light just before sunset, I was able to take my favorite photos of the night of the couple together on the top deck. Is there anything better than a true love highlighted by the soft waves of Lake Erie?
