I had met this lovely couple through another wedding I photographed in 2019 and again at their friend’s wedding in 2021. Needless to say, they new of my photography and how I worked with my couples at their weddings. Sarah and Jake wanted to spend time together and really take stock of their day. That’s why we went with a first look to optimize the time they got to spend with their bridesmaids and groomsmen and each other. For this April wedding day in Ohio, the girls were perfectly spring in mint bridesmaids dresses, while the guys rocked the navy blue groomsmen suits. The big surprise was right after the ceremony, the bride got a secret hair cut in Willow Haven’s Bridal suite. The couple finished the night off with a sparker “pretend” exit and some golden hour/sunset photos.
