Emily + Noah I Wedding (Olympia Fields Wedding Photographer)

5/01/13

{ Fiercely devoted I Passionate I Attentive I Faithful I Doting I Respectful I Enamored }

All of the words above describe and are a part of the very fabric of Emily and Noah’s love. Just look at the box of letters Emily had written to her future husband since she was a young teenager. Cherishing and preparing for the gift and responsibility of the marriage she knew she would have one day. It gives me chills even thinking about it, how much these two have absolutely cared for and prepared for their marriage. Not just their wedding day, but this life that they are entering into together as one. Their love is fiercely beautiful, fiercely devoted to each other and to God, and I am so honored and blessed to have been a part of documenting that.

Emily and Noah, thank you so much for just being who you are. I hope you’re enjoying your move to Texas and the start of your new life!

I love this, the robes are adorable!

Emily’s first letter to her future husband as a teenager, followed by her wedding day letter to Noah (Tears!!)

Noah gave Emily a “message in a bottle” – she tried really hard not to cry!

The 1st look!

Emily is a photographer herself (check out her work here), so she scheduled PLENTY of time for portraits! Yay!!!!

I absolutely adore this shot that Jason got:

LOVE the old fashioned cameras as centerpieces!

Absolutely adorable!
