Grab a cup o’ joe or large ice water – whatever suits your fancy… I have an epic post here! Meet Erik & Claire – a sweet, down to earth pair. ; )
Claire has been one of my dearest friends since grade school, and I was beyond excited (and touched) when she asked me to shoot her and Erik’s wedding in Lake George, NY this summer. Claire and her twin brother, Nick, have vacationed in Lake George every summer since they were young, and I can see now why they treasure it so much. This lake is SO pristine. And the 75-degree weather was absolutely perfect (a welcome change to the hot, muggy summer days here in Georgia).
The couple was married at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, and the celebration afterward was held at The Inn at Erlowest, which is a gorgeous stone castle situated right on the lake. Let me note that I have tons of dancing photos because this crowd was bumpin’!… so many bodies on the dance floor throughout the night. Love it. Congratulations you two – it was a blast! : )
Claire’s makeup artist brought with her a plethora of brushes and utensils. I was pretty much in awe…
Claire’s bridesmaids put together a scrapbook of her and Erik’s relationship – so cute.
You’re such a beauty, Claire. : )
Meet the honorary ring bearer – Claire’s great aunt’s stuffed bear that she’s had for 70+ years…!
Erik looked quite handsome!
I loved the retro cake topper! Claire borrowed it from within the family…
The wedding party got its groove on while being announced…
I had to give a shout out to my hometown friends… beautiful people. : )
Claire and Erik decorated the tables with young photos of them. Adorable.
A little bit softer now…
Lots of PSU alums at this celebration!
