Friends, I am so stinkin excited to share Ryan and Bre’s wedding with you!! I was looking forward to this wedding for such a long time, not only because it was at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, but because I got to photograph these two high school sweethearts! Bre and Ryan started dating while we were all in high school. Their love story has been through long distance and back, so it’s stronger than ever before. During their ceremony, Ryan and Bre wrote their own vows, and I’m pretty sure there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. They vowed to love each other through the thick and thin, and to maintain the same playful spirit that they have now for years to come. The two were married under Happy the dinosaur and it was perfect!

I love how all of Bre’s ideas flawlessly came together. I’m obsessed with the bright florals and the color scheme was carried throughout the day, even down to the shoes! There was no detail overlooked. I hope you enjoy re-living their day through these images!

Thanks so much for letting me capture your big day, Ryan and Bre! Also, I just had to throw this in there somewhere – fun fact: Ryan and I went to preschool together 🙂
