Larissa and Jake’s Next Chapter Winery wedding was so joyful and relaxed. Those are the best kind of wedding days! I really enjoy photographing at this venue, and it’s conveniently located right near my house!
Larissa is a go-with-the flow type bride, which I love! She was down for anything and completely trusted my guidance and direction. So basically, she’s my dream bride! Larissa also insisted that she did not want to be pulled away during cocktail hour for any photos as she wanted to enjoy her family and friends. I absolutely love that she prioritized her time with her guests on her wedding day. While I obviously love photos, I especially love a bride who understands her wedding day is about more than pretty pictures!
Jake is incredibly genuine and silly. He said he doesn’t like to be in front of the camera, but you would never know! He and Larissa were so comfortable and natural with each other. It was so clear that they each adore being around the other.
One of my favorite part’s of Larissa and Jake’s Next Chapter Winery wedding day was the mother-son dance! They did a line dance together, and Jake’s mom even changed into her cowboy boots for it! I love when couple buck tradition and incorporate details into their day that are uniquely them!
Congratulations again to these sweet newlyweds! Thanks for letting me be a part of your gorgeous day.
