One of the first things that Joni told me when we met was that she wanted to get married in the church she grew up in- the same church where her parents were married. I immediately related- Shawn and I were married in the church I grew up in and there was so much sentiment in that location for me, our wedding couldn't have been anywhere else! There is something so special about bringing all of the new people in your life back to the place that built you. 

Lane and Joni (and their families) are exactly the kind of people I really love getting to work with. They're intentional, traditional in the things that are most important, and plan a wedding knowing that it is a celebration of what God has done. I so, so enjoyed photographing this wedding. 

Joni has a very classic style and it was incorporated beautifully into everything- from her dress, to the black and white bowties and men's suits, to the gorgeous table decor at the reception. This crew was so much fun and knew how to live it up on the dance floor- I had the feeling no one really wanted to leave! Thank you, Lane and Joni, for the honor of photographing your wedding!
