It was a magical May day at the stunning Appleford Estate in Villanova, and Mike and Louise were about to see each other for the first time that day. Mike’s tie was straight, his boutonniere pinned and a huge grin lighted across his face. Louise’s dress was a dream, her hair that of a sprite and she walked gracefully across the cobblestoned path to her love. Mike turned to see his beloved and his face said it all. The love these two share is palpable. It is tangible. It drips off them like honey, sweet and golden. We never had to pose them, they fell into place perfectly and beautifully every time. Even when Louise got tired and needed a break, they sat on a picturesque bench and snuggled up, sharing a more private moment. We affixed our long range lenses, and our cameras feasted on the beauty in front of us. This couple, they really do complete each other. They share everything, they enjoy the other’s passions, and they are deeply, madly, crazy in love; and it was an absolute pleasure to behold.

All people should have a significant other who looks at them the way Mike looked at Louise when he saw her for the first time on their wedding day.

Louise’s laugh was no less boisterous because of her illness, and Mike made her laugh so easily.

We loved the pink bridesmaids dresses and gray suits on the groomsmen.

Appleford Mansion is an incredibly beautiful place, and these two were right at home in the gardens.

These two were perfectly fitting puzzle pieces, they just fell into place in every frame.

Even when Louise needed a rest, they snuggled together and were so perfectly in love, our camera ate them up.

A tender forehead kiss from a sweet groom to his beautiful bride.
