Ashley & Kris are MARRIED! They exchanged vows at the beautiful Pine Junction in Findley Lake, just as the autumn leaves were reaching their peak here in Western New York! It was a balmy 45 degrees, before even factoring in windchill on top of that, but you’d never know it from these images. Their entire wedding party handled the forecast like CHAMPS and nothing could steal the joy from this day!

It’s pretty rare that I get to photograph a wedding so close to home. (My commute to the getting ready location was 17 minutes, and that was AFTER picking up my assistant, Lindsey, from her house. HAHA!) It’s even more rare that I get to see so many of my past & present Hannah Bryerton Couples all in one place; I believe I counted SIX of them at this wedding! I swear nothing brings me more joy than getting to hug my favorite people and be reunited with their family and friends!

Another thing I lost count of: the number of times I cried this wedding day. I believe somewhere in the middle of toasts my cry count was up to six, as well. hahaha! Living proof that I truly am a human marshmallow, & my couples feel far more like family than they do clients!

Ashley & Kris-

You two deserve all the best things this world has to offer—like large McDonald’s Cokes, endless sunny beach trips with Gia, strolling TJ Maxx daily for fall scented candles, and the Buffalo Bills winning the Super Bowl every year for the rest of your lives. (Ok, the last one might be a stretch, but we can only hope!) I truly don’t have enough words to fully articulate just how much y’all mean to me. You perfectly balance each other out & to know you is to love you. Your gorgeous wedding surrounded my all your family and friends is the perfect testament to just how loved you truly are! I can’t believe I get to call this my job & even more so, call you my friends! I can’t wait for you to move back north so we can sip fruity drinks poolside together… and hopefully raise a hundred of the cutest babies Chautauqua County has ever seen.

I love you so much it hurts!
xoxo.
