Last weekend, we traveled up to West Point, New York for Lauren and Stan’s wedding day! It was a truly spectacular summer day as these two best friends tied the knot in front of their loved ones.
Lauren is a sweet friend of mine who has been a part of my life ever since our sorority days together at UPenn! I remember hearing when she got engaged and felt this incredible rush of joy when I saw a sweet inquiry email in my inbox! At their engagement session, I got to know Stan a little better and realized quite quickly that these two were the perfect pair.
Congratulations newlyweds! It was my honor to capture this special day in your lives!
