Jennifer and Nick

I continue to be struck with the power that is generated between two people on their wedding day. This past weekend I was in the Bangor area capturing the wedding of Jenn and Nick at the Lucerne Inn. I've done a few weddings at the Lucerne now and can say that it is quickly becoming a favored place to shoot. The grounds are attractive, the view to the west is gorgeous and the staff is top notch. We had a beautiful day, not to hot, no rain of course, and intermittent sun which made for some wonderfully soft light. One of the things that struck me about this day was the transition Jenn underwent from being stressed about all the details of the day(which is of course very common) to letting things go, to truly enjoying the entirety of the day. By the time she was exchanging her vows with Nick she was completely present and wholly engrossed in the moment. Nick of course, was just about as happy as a man can get. You couldn't imagine a more genuine smile or sense of fullfillment in a groom.

Jenn and Nick, you guys are great and I thoroughly enjoyed the day I spent with you. It was very rewarding for me to watch the love and tenderness between you two. I know you'll never let go of the love, but I hope you never let go of that tenderness. Here are a few images from the day. Keep an eye on www.rileyclients.com for a slide show of images, it should be finished and ready to view by Friday morning.
