When I arrived at Alden Castle I was blown away at it’s charm and beauty. The staff was absolutely wonderful and the decor Amy and Jason chose was breath taking. Carly (my super favorite best friend photographer) of Carly Michelle Photography asked me to second shoot for her and of course I said yes. I LOVE shooting beside her. Being the second shooter I was in charge of capturing Jason getting ready. We had quite the experience learning how to tie a bow tie. I am proud to say I can tie one now!
Amy arrived at the venue with Carly and her bridesmaids. They opted to do a first look and it was so sweet. I love when couples choose to do a first look because it allows them to have a moment for themselves before the rush of the day. Amy looked gorgeous and Jason’s face as he saw her for the first time was priceless. The wedding was performed by Amy’s sister, which added a special touch to the ceremony. Carly, thank you for allowing me to be part of their special day. 
Gorgeous!
