I've been searching for the perfect words to describe Alex and Justin's wedding day from September at Anderson Gardens / Prairie St. Brewhouse. And then I remembered I'm a photographer, not a writer. So I'll leave you with a few words from Alex and let the photos speak for the day.

"We had the pleasure of having Ryan do our engagement as well as wedding photography. Being introverts at heart, we were slightly nervous prior to our engagement shoot that it would be awkward and that the pictures would show this. However, Ryan's energy, organization, creativity, and overall kind presence made us extremely comfortable. He is knowledgeable about the perfect places to shoot and can quickly come up with creative shots on a whim. He went out of his way to make sure that both our engagement and wedding photos were candid and fun versus posed and boring. Looking over our photos from our wedding day really conveyed the story of the wedding and the plethora of emotions and energy everyone felt throughout the day. Our bridal party, friends, and family absolutely adored him and we got tons of compliments on his services as well as photos. Also, his assistant for the day, Mike, was just as knowledgeable and engaging as Ryan was... We feel so grateful to have had Ryan and Mike capture our special day and would recommend them for any occasion. Thank you so very much!"
