I’m about to cover your browser with the. happiest. photos.

Rachel and Brandon got hitched at The Ravington in Centerton, Arkansas in July 2020 and it was one of the most wonderful wedding days ever. Like, everyone was ridiculously happy and just down to have a good time. And in 2020? We needed that! I loved this couple immediately – Rachel has such a sparkly personality! – and I just adored how upbeat and fun they were through all the wild experiences that 2020 weddings brought. They’re incredible! Here’s three things I loved about their wedding day!

One: This moment with Rachel’s grandmother.

I see a lot of first looks with grooms (love them!), first looks with dads (love that!), and bridesmaids (love these!) but Rachel was the first bride I’ve ever had that had a first look moment with her grandmother. And when I say their first look was wonderful? I mean it! The love in these photographs is my favorite and I love that Rachel set up this moment for her, her grandmother, and her mother, too!

They’re such a happy bunch! How cute is the photo of all three of them?

Two: Can I say that Rachel’s facial expressions were one of my favorite things?

I love her! And when you look at these photos? You’re going to, too!

Three: Everyone was so freaking happy.

Let’s face it: 2020 really sucked. Like, it sucked so much that it’s October 2021 and I’m just now starting to catch up on blog posts from shoots and weddings that happened over a year ago. It was a wild time! And not in a good way! But you know what was wild in a good way? The infectious happiness at Rachel and Brandon’s wedding! The Ravington in Centerton was the perfect spot for their wedding celebration and I just loved being able to capture every moment for them. Ah! Love these so much!

Y’know! I’m not sure I’ve said “love” enough in this blog post so I’ll say it again. I loved this wedding day!
