Clinton/Parsons Wedding | June 8, 2013

Posted on June 22, 2013 by egoconnellphotography

Sara and I go way back to elementary school years and I was so excited when she asked me to be their photographer. Sara and Blake have a handsome son together (Anson) and he makes an appearance A LOT in this blog. I had a blast with their wedding party and truly felt I was part of the group! Sara made a gorgeous bride and wore one gorgeous wedding dress. I am so happy for the two of them and their little family and am so happy they asked me to be a part of their perfect day! Here are MANY photos of their day. I found it extremely hard to narrow down which ones to pick, because there are so many amazing ones. ENJOY! 🙂

Congrats to the two of you! I wish you many years of happiness together!

Yeoman/Borntrager Wedding| June 1, 2013

Posted on June 12, 2013 by egoconnellphotography

Derick and Talia were friends of mine from Ball State University. Derick and my husband roomed together their super senior year (year 5), so I got to know them that year. When Talia asked if I would take pictures of their wedding was beyond excited!

Derick and Talia got engaged the first night in their new house on Fish Lake, Michigan. She said it was right after they became homeowners! She showed up at the house and he was waiting there to propose. Here is a picture of how he did it!

Yes, I took this off of Facebook! It needed to be on here, because it was one amazing proposal!

Talia’s parents also live on Fish Lake and that was the site for their wedding. It was supposed to storm the entire day of the wedding. It ended up not raining or storming and it didn’t even sprinkle! They couldn’t have asked for a better day! Here are some pictures of their beautiful wedding. Enjoy!

Congrats you two! I am so happy I was able to share your day with you! I wish you all the happiness and many more memorable years together!

Yeoman “First Look” (wedding)

Posted on June 6, 2013 by egoconnellphotography

You may have heard about the “first look” at weddings. It is when the bride and groom see each other for the first time BEFORE the wedding. It was a tradition to keep from seeing the bride on the wedding, but that tradition is decreasing as the years go by.

The “first look” is a great way to spend some moments together before the wedding. It also helps to calm nerves. AND as a photographer, it also helps get a lot of those family portraits out of the way, so there is less rushing around after the ceremony. Anything to help your wedding day go smoother, is a “must do” in my book!

Talia and Derick had a beautiful first look and I wanted to share it with everyone reading this!
