Red Pine Camp, Golden Lake Wedding: Mary + Adam

Red Pine Camp Golden Lake Wedding Stephanie Beach Photography 23A lot of brides use their wedding bouquet to help commemorate a loved one who isn’t around anymore, or to cherish a special moment or item.

But Mary’s wedding bouquet has to be one of the sweetest and most thoughtful ones we have photographed yet as it was literally made from notes the bride received from her mom over the years.

I love details shots. During an actual wedding, there is normally only a few minutes here and there to grab the detail shots. Being able to think quick on my feet and still be creative is something I take pride in. I love being able to capture these tiny parts of the wedding day for my clients and help their future selves remember every moment of their big day.
