Hannah & Erik | Springfield, IL Artisans Building Neutral Spring Wedding Photographer

Hannah and Erik waited a long time for the wedding of their dreams, including a postponement to get through the thick of the pandemic. It made such a huge impact on them, but when they finally got to officially say “I do” it was so much more special. There couldn’t be two sweeter people than Hannah and Erik who are both such amazing, kind and caring people. They truly share such a beautiful relationship with each other and I loved every minute of capturing their wedding day.

Hannah was absolutely stunning in her off the shoulder lace gown as she walked towards Erik for their first look. They exchanged private vows with each other and maybe a few tears, but so many smiles. We got to capture them before their ceremony just relaxing and being with their super fun bridal party!

Hannah and Erik were both pretty nervous for the ceremony. Hannah’s sweet dad took her hand and walked his daughter down the aisle so proudly. I could tell the moment Hannah and Erik were standing together on the alter, all their nerves melted away and they just enjoyed the moment surrounded by all of their family and friends. They finally got to exchange rings, and share their first kiss as husband and wife! I loved capturing their huge smiling faces as they danced back down the aisle!

My amazing videography partner, Lydia, and I took the newlyweds for some golden hour shots after the ceremony before they entered their reception. We had so much fun capturing Hannah and Erik freshly married and loving every minute of it! Hannah’s vision came to life at the Artisans Building with string lights and lush florals covering the tables. It was truly such a beautiful space and so inviting for their celebration. I loved listening to the speeches their friends and family gave talking about how perfect Hannah and Erik are together. I just know these two are going to have the most amazing marriage! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Long, I am so thankful to have been a part of your special day!
