This past Saturday my younger cousin, Beth, married her best friend Dirk. Beth is sweet, caring and is known as the talker in the relationship. She wears her emotions on her sleeve and it absolutely came through on her special day. Dirk compliments Beth tending to be more quiet. The two met at Western Illinois University and were so excited to finally be husband and wife.

In a summer full of 90 degree temps, we were fortunate enough for clear skies and temps in the 80’s. It was such an honor to be selected to capture their very special day. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.
