He proposed to her on one knee, with a long letter and a dozen roses. Ryan has a way of sweeping Miranda off her feet. And he loves her with such a sincerity that makes documenting their love easy.

From the minute they saw each other during the first look until the moment they ran together through two lines filled with their closest friends and family members to exit, Ryan stood by her side the way he will for the rest of their lives together. Their love is beautiful, it’s deep, and it’s true.

Miranda wanted a Southern Belle Wedding filled with all the romance a little girl dreams of. Her Red, Gold, and Ivory palette created an traditional, yet elegant and Southern theme that showed beautifully throughout the wedding. Miranda + Ryan dreamed of a joyous wedding and true celebration; there day was all that they ever wanted.

Thank you both for the honor and pleasure of having Amelia and I document your wedding day:

The RICH red that Miranda chose for her details couldn’t have been a more beautiful color for the photos.

Beautiful, Miranda.

Ryan is SOOOO sweet. And it always touches my heart so dearly when I see a groom treat his bride with as much love and respect as Ryan does Miranda.

Ryan + Miranda opted to do a first look……. 🙂 And this is the moment when they first reach each other.

Following the first look, we did a short session with the bride and groom. 🙂 🙂 🙂

LOVE

The gorgeous bridal party!

STUDS.

Are you kidding me with this cake?!!! It’s absolutely beautiful.

As every groomsman walked down the aisle, they high fived and hugged Ryan congratulations.

But when Miranda walked out, she was all he could see.

The ceremony was perfect.

It was filled with laughter.

And there were serious moments too.

Following the wedding, Miranda and Ryan were both filled with emotion. SO, they took a moment just to enjoy the fact that they were married!!!

I even felt myself tearing up for their first dance!

I think this is my absolute favorite shot from the day!

Beautiful…..

Miranda and her dad danced to Stealing Cinderella…they are SO close and I know that they will forever treasure this moment.

As you can tell, Ryan is a TRIP! lol….he was SO happy and having a blast at the reception. I told him he could cut the groom’s cake however he wanted, it was HIS cake…THIS is what he chose as his cutting method! lol

And the dancing began….

Miranda LOVES to dance!

Just before the reception came to a close, Ryan picked Miranda up. It was SO sweet!!! AH!

This was their final dance to close the night.

Mr. and Mrs. Ryan Legendre

Ryan and Miranda,

From the beginning of this process until now…it was my pleasure working with the two of you! I’ve not only enjoyed being there for you but watching the two of you and the way you love each other so deeply. Your love is SO apparant, even in the way you interact with each other. You respect and you care for one another and I hope that these images always bring you back to this beautiful day as you start your lives together.

I wish you the best and I hope you enjoy your future honeymoon to Disney!!!!

Catherine
