Wedding_Photographers_in_PittsburghWhat a sweet couple Kim and Jim are.  I’d been looking forward to their wedding since their engagement portrait session just about 1 year ago.  It was totally worth the wait – not only is Lingrow Farm a wonderful place for a wedding, their friends and family were so fun and enthusiastic about enjoying the day along with the couple!

 

Kim got ready in the old farmhouse as her girls Nicole, Shelley and Lori looked on:Wedding_Photographers_in_Pittsburgh

It was a sunny day, so Jim’s best man Justin made sure that Jim had on plenty of sunscreen:

The Reverend got the story of their first date wrong.  It was Kim that stood Jim up!  All’s well that ends well:)

Justin and groomsmen Alex and Mark helped out with the snacks while we did family formals:

I was simply blown away by the cookies that Kim’s mom Judy made for the wedding.  They were amazing!

The ladies formed a circle around Kim that Jim had to get through.  He did it!
