I could not have been more excited to photography my cousin Betsy’s wedding!!  I got to spend a buggy day with Betsy and Ryan last fall during their engagement shoot and I fell in love with their sense of humor together and laid back attitude.  I know I am not alone in feeling that way about them because they had a huge wedding party that was so excited to be a part of their day.

Since I was young I have always remembered being in awe of the style and artistry I would see when I went to Betsy’s home so I knew this wedding was going to be as cute as could be and they didn’t disappoint.  I loved all the personal touches. Betsy was stunning in her dress and the sweetest accessories.

It was a warm day and it was pretty funny riding on the bus around the city taking pictures with this crew.  There was no shortage of comedy or personality with these guys.  We got some awesome shots and managed to stay on schedule which I must say is impressive with a large group that likes to have a good time.

Ryan and Betsy chose the most amazing menu to serve their guest at South Branch Tavern, I could have eaten all night.  The river was gorgeous and it was so fun to see all the party boats cruising by.  Their party lasted well into the night and I could still hear the music several blocks away when we left so I know they were having a great time.  Missy and I had an amazing time with you Betsy and Ryan and we know you have a lifetime of laughter and happiness ahead of you.
