“Oh I’ll stay with you through the ups and the downs
Oh I’ll stay with you when no one else is around
And when the dark clouds arise
I will stay by your side
I know we’ll be alright
I will stay with you
Everything will be fine
And I will stay with you
Through the end of time
I will stay with you”
-John Legend, “Stay With You”
Liz and Michael are joyfully, unapologetically, wonderfully in love. You can see it in the way they laugh together, in the way they can’t keep their hands off each other, in the way they look at each other from across the room. Photographing poeple with love like this is so fun, and I felt comfortable with them immediately. Their wedding at the Foundry at Oswego Pointe was a blur of smiles, dancing, tequila shots, happy couples, smiling babies, and an amazing wedding party who were always there to help. And let me tell you, after many years of photographing weddings, these two get a few prestigious awards from me: best first kiss ever (proof you can take your time and enjoy it!), sexiest first dance (including the John Legend song Michael has known he wanted to dance to for years), and funniest/most potentially hazardous cake cutting ever (I’m so glad nobody got hurt!) Never forget what brought you two together and what’s really important, Michael and Liz: Fondue.
Thank you for having us, ya’ll, it was a blast!
