Thanks to having a Kenya team meeting one Monday evening earlier in the summer, I took the day off (or worked from home in Williamsburg) and was able to join my sister for her bridal portrait before my meeting. I have struggled in the area of being creative with my camera and have had a hard time with difficult lighting recently so I wasn't too thrilled with my photos, but I captured a few moments that are definitely worth sharing. Plus, I was too busy enjoying the session (and watching the professional photographer) to spend too much time messing with my own camera.

Mom and Dad with Lee and Hope who are some of our good friends from church. Hope is wonderfully gifted in the singing department and sang The Lord's Prayer during Hayley and Jerry's ceremony. It was absolutely beautiful and such a gift to all who were present.
Hayley with her baby nephew
This is the groom's cake that Hayley had made for Jerry. The significance of the kilt is that Radford's mascot is a highlander, and Jerry was a mascot for the school while he was there. This cake was quite an impressive creation!
Practicing for the big day...
