I was standing at the alter with my hands folded in front of me with my father to my right and my mother to my left. I was about to merry my soul mate. She was about to come through the church doors and my world would change forever. I wasn’t nervous, I had a smile on my face and I was excited. Just then, the doors of the church swung open and there she was. I turned to my mother and said “that’s my bride.” Julie entered the room with the most amazing smile on her face wearing the most beautiful wedding gown I had ever seen. This was Julie. This was my bride.

I still call her my bride today, because I still remember that moment the doors swung open. Julie joined me at the last wedding as a second shooter and she was amazing. We had so many comments from attendees about how well we work together and I really enjoyed working with her. She seemed to anticipate what needed to be done and it just worked well. This was a photo from the rehearsal where she was letting me know it was raining. Isn’t she beautiful?
