She captured exactly the right moments, keeping that days atmosphere alive.
I love the one were she (Michelle) is allmost at the bottom of the stairs. It even makes me nervous !

I love this! I too love small weddings (I had one so I am biased). They always seem so personal and just so much fun.
Great photography too.
They look beautiful! And the atmosphere seems so cosy :)
Lovely pictures and what a cool wedding. Makes me want to do it all over again, this time a small home wedding!

This is everything a wedding should be and I love it… close friends & family, pie, dog and mis-matched chairs. Just perfect, my kind of wedding!
I love this post. I got married at home, in my parents’ backyard, with just 30 of our closest friends and family and it was absolutely perfect – I loved every minute of it.
