Belleville Illinois Wedding Photography: Mistie + Andy

Mistie + Andy were married on a lovely summer day.

Going straight to the pics....cause that's what everyone wants to see anyways right?

This was near the end of the day. I always try and ask for a few minutes of the bride & grooms time after the reception has started to step outside for a few minutes during sunset. I never ever regret the images we are able to get during this time. The light is just soooo gorgeous....as you can see here. And when you have gorgeous light, it just makes the gorgeous couple even more gorgeous!!!!


The handsome groom.











I LOVE when brides choose a colorful shoe!!!!






Mistie's dress was sooo pretty.


One of my favorite shots. This dress was perfect for her.


One of my favorite shots of the day. Doesn't Mistie look sooo chic!?!?


All the lovely ladies!!!




They were surrounded by many friends and family.


I LOVE the expression on Misties face. It's especially meaningful when the ceremony is so personal to the bride and groom.


Thanks to my second shooter, Dan, for capturing this shot.


A quiet moment alone after the recessional.


ON TO THE PARTY ! ! ! ! ! ! !
I don't know what the significance of these lighted sabers are...but oh my word, how fun!!!!

all day long, everyone was having a good time with this object....do you know what it is?


Yes, that is just plain silliness.....and I LOVE IT!













Thanks to Mistie & Andy and your whole wild, crazy crew. Such a BLAST with you all!!!!!
