Debbie and Rudolf

This is quite a love story.  Debbie and Rudolf traveled all the way from the Netherlands to get hitched down in Brown County, IN.  It was a destination wedding for their entire family. Friends traveled from all over the world to be with them.  Debbie’s daughter sang so beautifully at the ceremony and said later in her toast, “It was like Mom went to the husband store and got the best husband they had”.  I thought that was precious and I think she is right.  Rudolf adores his wife and children.  He is the most loving and patient husband and father.  They are so perfect together and such beautiful people inside and out.  I have always wanted to have a true, rustic barn wedding and am thrilled my first was with such awesome people with great taste.  Lisa Gorman of Memory Makers and her staff did a wonderful job as well as Kathy’s Kloset.  Thank you for letting me share in your day and congratulations to your entire family.

It was a very special thing that they had access to this property:)  Even if they did have to ride in the 'poop mobile"

My daughter, Annie, was at this wedding shooting with me.  She has done a great job all summer!  Here is one of my favs that she shot this day:

This shot was all Annie!  My daughter strikes again.
