Mariah & Andrew

Ithaca, NY

Sowers Wedding-421.jpg

I was so excited to photograph this wedding! For starters, the venue, Gratitude and Grace, was absolutely beautiful. I always recommend choosing a venue that keeps everything at the same location. Mariah and Andrew were able to stay the night in the Victorian home with their bridal party, as well as have the ceremony and reception set up on the same grounds. This place has it all with a gorgeous setup.

Ithaca is a home away from home for me so I’m always excited to make the drive down that way! I was also excited because of how Mariah and Andrew met. They met their freshman year at Ithaca College and have a fondness for film and photography, like myself! And they could not be a sweeter couple.

They really had every detail planned out and we had plenty of time to take all kinds of photographs before the ceremony even began, making it a relatively stress-free morning. We also set aside time for a “first touch,” which I am completely obsessed with! Afterward, the ceremony went off without a hitch but with plenty of laughs and a few tears too.  

During dinner we stepped outside to catch some of the golden light of sunset! They danced and laughed as the sun went down with just a couple of us there to witness their happiness. And before we knew it, the moon had replaced the sun and everyone inside was tearing up the dance floor! I had such a blast with this crew and really felt like part of the family by the end of the day.
