I always get a little worried when I'm set to photograph a wedding for a couple who has already eloped. It doesn't happen often but, when it does, these weddings tend to lack the feeling and emotions of a traditional wedding because the couple is already married and has made their commitment to each other.
Thankfully, when Alyson and Nick held their "official" wedding back in September, a year after I photographed their private elopement on the beach of Goddard Park, it felt just as real and special as every other wedding I've shot this year because the bride and groom at the center of this day are very real and very special themselves.
And, if nothing else, Alyson and Nick's big day felt like the giant party they always knew they wanted and had to wait 365 days to actually celebrate.
I'd say it was worth the wait.
So, if you'd like to see why Alyson and Nick's wedding day was just as special as the first day they said "I do", check out my latest blog all about it by clicking here.
As always, thanks for reading and be sure to let me know what you think!
