Krystyn & Joe - The Ceremony

Joe and Krystyn got married at the Basilica of St. Lawrence on November 8, 2008. They couldn't have asked for a more beautiful setting. The wedding party looked great in their long dresses and tuxedos, with Krystyn and Joe completing the setting as the glowing bride and groom. Their family and friends gathered together to wish them a life of happiness. Love was definitely in the air that day and could be felt by everyone.

Krystyn & Joe - The Reception

After the ceremony, the party continued at the reception held at Copper Crest in Hendersonville, North Carolina. It's a wonderful, old house that has been converted into a lovely Bed & Breakfast. The couple's first dance was one of many and you could tell how happy they are just from the look on their faces.

Everyone had such a great time at the reception. The entire day was filled with well
wishes and laughter with family and friends.

And this is as far as we're going with the photos folks! Let's give the happy couple a little privacy! We wish Krystyn and Joe all the happiness that life bestows upon them.

Krystyn - Bridal Shoot

I was very privileged to be asked to shoot the wedding of Krystyn and Joe. The wedding is now over, so it's safe for me to post Krystyn's beautiful bridal portraits without the fear of Joe sneaking a peek. The wedding was spectacular and I can't wait to dig in and start going through the photos. But, until that time, here are just a few photos that I thought I would share. Okay...and let me be the first to say it! Wow!!

We started out at the Basilica of St. Lawrence located in downtown Asheville. The church is beautiful on the inside and Krystyn looked like an angel. We moved on to the Grove Arcade, not far from the church, and then to the Botanical Gardens located at the University of North Carolina at Asheville.
