This wedding will always stay with me, no matter how many weddings I shoot.  It was the simplest wedding and the smallest wedding I've ever attended, and it was the most romantic and intimate wedding I've ever experienced.  The love and chemistry between the bride and groom was palpable.  So moving. 

We were just steps away from the Lake Michigan waves with their gentle roaring sound in the air, the slight wind was blowing through the flower garden, the evening sun was warmly shining down on us, and with their closest friends and family members surrounding them, Patrick and Michelle said their "I do's" and committed their lives and love to one another.  

This moment was solely about their love and having those closest to them there to celebrate in their happiness. It was so beautiful and simply breathtaking.
