Getting ready photos on a 10 acre ranch

After documenting Lindsay’s gorgeous gown hanging in front of a reflective mirror in the family home, Vince captured a few candid shots as the bride’s mom helped to secure her wedding gown. Although the couple had decided against a formal bridal party, Nathan’s sisters were on hand to assist Lindsay as she put the finishing touches to her attire.

We captured some special moments between the bride and her mom in the lead up to the country-style wedding before a classic portrait session with Lindsay holding a white rose bouquet. After some shots of her looking out the shuttered windows of the family home, we stepped out into the heat for a few photos in the landscaped grounds.

Meanwhile, Tara photographed Nathan’s dad as he helped to straighten the groom’s suit jacket, then captured a few sophisticated portraits against the neutral backdrop. Nathan and his entourage then made their way over to Lindsay’s family estate where the bride was ready to walk down the aisle on the arm of her dad.

Lindsay and Nathan’s reception was also being held in the stables and kicked off with speeches and toasts from those closest to them. We grabbed a candid shot as the couple was embraced by the groom’s dad and another as Lindsay pulled Nathan in by his braces to kiss him.

After performing the cake cutting ceremony, we snuck out with the couple for another short portrait session as the light slowly faded. Aside from some off-camera flash shots beside the sparkling lake, we also got creative in the low-lit surrounds of their horse stable wedding ceremony venue. The night ended with the couple’s grand exit, stepping through an “arch” made by their wedding guests as they held sparklers into the air.
