"So, how do you know Niki and Jared?" was a question I heard several times the Sunday I was shooting this wedding, and the answer has a few layers. I grew up in Marietta, Georgia, where I became friends with Jared and his twin sister Erin (one of my most wonderful friends and college roommates). We remained friends throughout college, staying in touch, and all getting together over holidays when everyone was in town. Fast forward a bit, and Jared meets a beautiful girl named Niki, a native Coloradan, while working at a Young Life camp in Fraser, CO one summer. Fast forward even further, and I meet my boyfriend who grew up outside Boulder where he was dear friends with none other than Niki herself. Eventually I met Niki a little while before the two got engaged, when she was visiting Marietta, and everything came full circle. I am so thankful to have been able to document their absolutely joy-filled wedding day.
Highlights: Mr. Daniels officiating his son's wedding, Niki's incredible bouquet, two of Jared's talented groomsmen playing music in the ceremony, one of the best reception dance parties I've seen in a while.
