One of the things that we love so much about wedding photography is meeting so many different types of people. Each couple has a unique story and personality. We love watching how they relate to each other, how they communicate, and how their personalities mesh. Mark & Kate are two people who were no doubt absolutely meant to be together. That was evident within about 30 seconds of sitting down across the table from them at Blue Sail Coffee earlier this year, and it has grown more and more evident the longer we’ve known them. From the way that they look at each other, talk to each other, their love for restoring their home, their even greater love for their three cats, and just wanting to do life together- they couldn’t be a better fit.
Mark & Kate wanted their wedding day to be simple and classic, and to reflect their love for the natural beauty of Arkansas. Ultimately, though, they wanted it to be celebration of their love in the presence of their closest friends and family. We were blown away by the amount of love and support they receive from their friends. Those are the kinds of friendships that everyone hopes to experience in their lifetime.
Forty Two at the Clinton Presidential Center was an absolute dream! From the elegant and classy Clinton Library, to the beautiful grounds surrounding it, and the river bridge as their ceremony backdrop- this venue quickly stole our hearts! The staff was incredible, and the cupcakes were to DIE for! Oh, and just wait until you see the cake-topper that Mark and Kate made together. Wow!!
Kate and Mark, we cannot thank you enough for trusting us with your wedding day. We are so blessed to have met you, to see your relationship grow, and to witness the start of your beautiful marriage. Thank you for making us feel like family. We love you guys!
