samantha & shem {married} // omaha, ne

A few weekends ago, we celebrated Samantha and Shem’s big day! Since their engagement photos, and, since I’ve photographed others within the wedding party, I knew it would be a fun day. Speaking of wedding party, I believe it is the largest one I have ever worked with — 23 total! It only makes sense though considering Shem’s 8 brothers and 1 sister made up almost half of that! I’ve mentioned this before, but how fun would it be to have that many siblings!? The ceremony took place at the beautiful Our Lady of Lourdes church and reception at Legacy Hall. In between, we went to a pretty little park, and even though it looks nice out, it was quite chilly! I always appreciate when the party is willing to step out into the cold for a few shots. 🙂 After going to a few of their favorite bars, they went to the reception to dance the night away! And let me tell you, there was definitely A LOT of dancing! Such a fun crowd. I don’t think anyone was too shy in breaking out their best dance moves.

Thank you again, Samantha and Shem, for having me capture your beautiful day!
