Ian and Julia's wedding day was the epitome of doing your wedding your own way and drawing from what is most important to you as a couple. For them, it was a small ceremony where Ian recounted their trip to Maui that ended with them surviving the wild fires and the depth of his love for Julia, followed by a dinner reception at Le Bouillon in the Omaha Old Market, sitting, eating, and drinking with their closest loved ones. Dinner was served family style and conversation flowed across tables.
They started their day at 4pm in the afternoon with a ceremony shortly after, brief portraits and wedding party group photos, and then wanted to be present for the rest of the day. It could not be more of an honor as a photographer to simply witness a day unfold instead of a couple feeling an intense need to perform or orchestrate a wedding day for my appeasement.
Julia emailed me a week before the wedding and told me to keep an eye out for when Ian got a chance to dig in at the dessert table - it was one of his favorite details and what he was looking forward to (other than the marriage part, obviously)!
