Paul…Paul-Paul-Paul-Paul Paul!
There's this great scene in Legally Blonde right after Reece Witherspoon's character gets dumped where she's watching Jerry Maguire prattle his "you complete me" speech and she throws yodels at the screen screaming "Liar!"
I stood up and clapped.
You see, as I've aged that giddy, all consuming fairy tale notion of love seems…well just that…a fairy tale confined to the pages of children's stories and hollywood scripts.
Given this, I suppose it's only fitting to begin this story with the words
Once upon a time.
Judy & Jonathan married on a day that started with rain, progressed quickly to temperatures rarely experienced outside the equator and concluded with one of the most glorious sunsets the small town of Warkworth has ever seen.
To be part of an Ingham event is to be part of family at its purest. Every aspect of their wedding was crafted from love.
Judy's father constructed the incredible archway they were married beneath, Judy's sister provided both the entree's and the cake. Judy's mother made a wedding dress fit for a princess then there was the plethora of brothers, aunties, uncles, cousins, grandparents and friends who all stepped in to lend a hand. Even Mother Nature came to the party holding back the storm just long enough for the pair to marry on the bottom lawn.
All wedding's are filled with love, yet the way these two look at each other makes me feel like at that exact moment there's no one else in the world.
A huge thanks to the bridal party for maintaining both a sense of adventure and a sense of humor as I made them cross paddocks for the group shots. Also to Judy & Jonathan for allowing me to steal them away for the final pictures on the hill.
It was an absolute honor to photograph your day, seeing the two of you makes me realize that Paul wasn't so far off the mark after all…
Much love
Jacq
