I love photographing destination weddings.   It’s refreshing as an artist to change things up for a bit and photograph in new places.   What I love even more than a destination wedding is when I have the honor to photograph someone I know personally.

I met the groom, Wade, several years ago through my husband. They have been childhood friends since 5th grade or something like that.  So, you can imagine my excitement when we found out that Wade was planning on proposing to a lovely lady name Nicole during their ski trip to Colorado last winter.   The first thing that came to mind was sweet…I know just the perfect photographer to recommend!! Heehee

Wade & Nicole wed at the Hilton Gardens in Perrysburg, Ohio on June 8, 2012.  It was truly a beautiful occasion!!  Thank you so much Wade & Nicole for choosing me to photograph your special day.  I had the best time, especially since I was able to share it with my family. I hope you enjoy the memories I captured and wish you all the best! Xoxoxo, Gretchen
