A few weeks ago I had the honor of photographing Georgia and Ian's special day. The original wedding date was set for October, but in June Ian accepted a job in Oklahoma that would require him to move within a matter of weeks. Georgia decided that she wanted to go with him so instead of planning the wedding over the summer they planned it in two weeks! The two were surrounded by family and friends as they became one, and then ran off into the pouring rain to start their new life together. 

I asked Georgia to tell a bit about how they met and she sent me this:
We met in college through a friend, and that friend would always get messages from a guy named Ian saying "Woo caf". "Woo caf" was the text Ian would send out to his friends one hour before the cafeteria opened. She invited me along and I met the people who would become lifelong friends... and one strange fellow sitting right at the cafeteria door wearing a lab coat with his hair in a ponytail. The weeks turned to months and I developed quite the crush on him (he was oblivious and just saw me as our friend's roommate) until I asked him to breakfast and poured my heart out to him. We went out for two years until he proposed on his birthday. He says to this day that it was the best present ever."

He may have been oblivious prior to their breakfast, but when I met him on the day of the wedding his eyes were focused on her and never left. I have never in my life seen a more joyful bride than Georgia, and I looked at Ian when she was coming down the aisle and it was obvious that his heart was full; and as they walked out as man and wife she fell into his arms like it was home.
