I met Vic and Herman about 11 months ago at a company Christmas party. I had been in California and drove home to change and then go straight to the party. I had been talking to someone who wanted to introduce me to Vic as she was planning her wedding and needed a photographer. Despite the long day of driving, I was excited to meet her in person and finally put a face to the name I had heard such great things about. As I have come to find in the last 11 months of knowing Vic, she was an absolute gem to talk to. I was also able to meet her then fiancé Herman who was just as sweet as she is, and hear about their incredible story. Vic and Herman have been together for 10 years and they were planning a November wedding on a rooftop at sunset. While listening to them tal about themselves I could see the immense amount of love they have for each other. Vic was overflowing with joy and Herman was the real life version of the heart eye emoji as he let Vic tell their story.
We let the holiday season pass and did engagement pictures in January. The entire time they were all smiles and jokes and couldn't stop talking about how excited they were to be getting married. We were touch and go throughout the year to make sure everything was set up for their wedding day. Vic being one of the easiest and most understanding brides I've ever worked with, I was so excited for their wedding day to finally arrive. And to say it was well worth the wait would be an understatement.
Vic and Herman were such a joy to capture moments for. As always, Vic was as happy as could be and glowing with happiness as she got ready to walk down the isle. Herman was hanging out with his boys and cracking jokes while they got ready. Their friends and family were so wonderful to be around and all of them couldn't stop congratulating and complimenting Vic on how beautiful she looked throughout the night. As a photographer you want to be frustrated at interruptions with pictures, but I couldn't be mad as I saw all the love that was present for Vic and Herman on their wedding day. I was so lucky to be a part of this day for them.
Vic and Herman, thank you.
I loved that I was able to be your photographer for this adventure you're starting after ten years of being together. You two are overflowing with love and it is such a beautiful thing to see. Thank you for the good laughs during all our time together and thank you for picking me to capture these moments for you to look back at for the rest of your lives. I am honored that you enjoyed my spunk and for the never ending understanding during any of the hiccups we came across. I wish nothing but the best for you two as you start this part of your lives together and I can't wait to see the wonderful life you adventure on together.
Congratulations.
Enjoy.
