Historic Post Office Wedding | Hampton Wedding Photographer | Trey + Kristina

Historic Post Office Wedding

Trey and Kristina have been together for six years. In that time, they have doubtless gone through all the highs and lows that life can bring, yet they continue to choose love for each other. That love was more evident last weekend than it ever has been, because after six years they still get butterflies when they're together and would rather spend time with no one else. Love is a choice, and they have demonstrated their commitment to the relationship they share.

I can't talk about their wedding day without gushing over all the elements that made the Historic Post Office drop-dead gorgeous. Kristina worked with the incredibly talented Aleen Floral Design to cover the venue in white, from incredible roses to custom draping and greenery that stood behind them during the ceremony. Kristina was an absolutely flawless bride, and nothing sums up how beautiful she is more than when she looked at a bridal portrait I took and couldn't help but exclaim, "how do I look so good?!" Their wedding is truly one of the prettiest I have ever witnessed. And just wait until you see Koda, their adorable dog, who was a big part of their wedding day!

Trey and Kristina, your relationship has already withstood the test of time, and yet on your wedding day it still felt so fresh and new. It's obvious you don't take each other for granted, and you truly enjoy being together, even if every day isn't as glamorous as Sunday was :) May you always hold each other in the highest regard, and may your life together be beautiful in every way. Congratulations!!!

Koda loved his dog collar and leash (from Etsy!), and I think this is Nathan's favorite picture he has ever taken ;)

When I told Trey how beautiful Kristina looked, he told me it made him "200 times more nervous." Their first look couldn't come soon enough for him...

I talk about them a lot, but first looks are my favorite. Forget the timeline and the convenience - brides and grooms alike immediately relax when they finally get to spend time with the person they MOST want to see on the wedding day. It's a sweet time for everyone.
