The Onyx Royale Affair!

Hi All! 

So 2021 was truly a year of twists, turns and rule bending for us. We went through a host of changes and had to adjust to those changes, both positive and negative. One of the positive adjustments we made in 2021 was coming out of wedding photography retirement to shoot the wedding of a couple who is dear to our hearts... Ryan and Asia Moore! We have known Asia for many years and met Ryan several years ago when they began dating. We have been shooting Asia since 2012 and Ryan since 2018 and each time has been a magical experience. So when Asia got engaged in 2020 and asked us to shoot her wedding, her request was met with great hesitation as we had decided that our last wedding would be the one we shot in 2018. After a couple of asks, we talked it over and decided that we would come out of retirement to shoot ONE LAST wedding. We could not pass up the opportunity to shoot this wedding event of the year for the one we have been shooting for so many years, and we are so glad we didn't.

It was the perfect day... sunny with a light, cool breeze. The backdrop for the ceremony was breathtaking, as it was just before the sun began to set and there was a beautiful golden glow along the lakefront landscape. Truly a fairytale scene and we are honored that we were chosen to capture each amazing moment. Enjoy the images that follow, which will give just a glimpse of Ryan and Asia's amazing day. Now... we are OFFICIALLY retired from weddings again.
