Suzette and Kevin are a couple with hearts that simply put, beat for each other. They are a perfect coupling. And because I’m invested in these two outside of just this wedding, I’m overjoyed at this perfect match.

Suzette and Kevin planned a wedding that speaks entirely of their life’s loves. It was romantic, elegant, well-planned, and hugely family based. Between the two of them, Kevin and Suzette share 6 sisters and 4 brothers. And each one of them, along with their spouses, found a place in Suzette and Kevin’s bridal party. The dance floor was full from the first dance to the very last song with cousins and aunts and uncles.

But the most incredible act of love of family came from Suzette. While Kevin’s ill grandfather sat in his kitchen as the wedding day progressed, unable to attend the celebration, he had no idea that a trolley filled with his grandson and his beautiful new wife was making its way to him. Kevin and Suzette, followed by their bridal party, walked into that kitchen surprising their grandfather. And that face. That smile. It was radiant. When I look back on the pictures of that moment, I’m pleased to know with certainty that they’ll be loved for a lifetime. And I am thankful that I got to capture such a loving and giving and family-based gesture of a beautiful bride for her new husband. Kevin and his family were able to take a beautiful family photo in that kitchen with the newest member, Suzette, and their grandpa.

Thank you to Suzette and Kevin for a beautiful day from top to bottom. For a wedding filled with elegance and grace, and for a lovely moment that I’ll always be glad I could photograph. I’m so happy for your life together. Enjoy this sneak peek.
