James & Danielle | Jefferson Patterson Park Wedding

Posted on Jun 24, 2015 in Weddings | 6 Comments

I am always so excited when Emily, of Emily Chastain Photography, invites me to second shoot with her. It seems like Emily always finds the sweetest clients and the day is always a ton of fun. However, when Emily first asked me to second shoot Danielle & James’ Jefferson Patterson Park wedding, I was a little hesitant, as I would have to be at their wedding at 6:30 am!!! Luckily, I already had a wedding in the area the night before, and I was able to grab a hotel nearby. I’m not going to lie though, the promise of vegan waffles was a big motivator! (Read: Will work for vegan waffles)

When Emily first sent me the timeline, she let me know that I would need to get some images of James’ leather pants and earrings. I was having a good bit of trouble picturing the leather pants… especially at the end of May… but I must say that I was blown away with how perfect they were for James! While Emily was with Danielle, I got to hang out with James, before heading to  Jefferson Patterson Park for their first look.

I love the vintage camera theme and their tasteful ceremony decor. Their ceremony included a German log cutting ceremony; and while it didn’t quite go as planned, I think it was more representative of how life really rolls.

    Oh my gosh, what a dream wedding!! This is so beautiful, rustic, cool, and unique – I love it. That first picture of the two of them in the tall grass is INCREDIBLE!! I love her polka dot dress and gloves, the florals, the table decor (so cute!!), and the piñata! How fun! Great job capturing this awesome wedding, Jennifer, and congratulations James and Danielle!
