Buffalo Wedding Photographer

Little did Jen know when she walked into Shamrock Jack’s bar to celebrate St. Patrick’s day seven years ago, she was about to meet her lucky charm! She and Todd hit it off, and over the next 5 years started to build their life together, eventually promising each other forever on Thanksgiving Eve of 2019 surrounded by friends and family. They were back where it all began at Shamrock Jack’s, when Todd surprised Jen by grabbing the microphone from the band and serenading her with one of their favorite songs, with just one minor tweak to the lyrics; Will you marry me?

Thus began the engagement chapter of their lives, and all the giddy anticipation and meticulous planning that led to the gorgeous and joyful celebration I’m sharing with you today! This day was truly special in so many ways, but my favorite part was simply the pure JOY that Jenn & Todd radiated at every moment! From getting ready in their respective hotel rooms to being the life of the party on the dance floor, they were bursting with happiness. Positivity is contagious, so it’s no surprise that everyone at this wedding seemed to be having the time of their lives! I’m so thankful this wonderful duo chose me to capture their celebration and I’m excited to give this little glimpse into their love story. Enjoy!
