It's easy to forget the core of a wedding sometimes. It's not about all the decorations and the beautiful venues and the yummy food. A wedding simply needs to be two people in love saying their vows. It's cool to get little reminders about how simple and beautiful a wedding can be no matter where it is.
Heather and Kevin called us last minute a couple weeks ago and asked if we were available that day to shoot their wedding at the Knox County Courthouse. Thankfully we were. Kevin is on the road a lot with his job and has a crazy schedule, so while he was home, they decided to just take the opportunity and do it.
We gathered up some gear, called a babysitter, and headed to town. And then a storm hit. Not just a storm, a monsoon. No real worries… we just had to improvise. I had all these ideas to shoot around the courthouse, but we made the inside work. At least I think we did. Let me know what you think. :)
It's not every wedding where the couple has to walk through a metal detector before their nuptials. :)

Heather and Kevin have the cutest (and fearless) little three year-old named Ken. He made quick use of a bannister for entertainment.
We tried doing a few portraits on the front porch of the old courthouse, but it was sooooo dark. I'm telling you, it was pouring rain.
The wind started blowing the rain in on us, so we moved back inside. We found one spot in the county government building that wasn't ugly. And then we put this beautiful bride and handsome guy in it. :)
Aren't they cute?
Ken was a jumper.
I love that look Heather is giving Kevin.
The ceremony.
Married!!
Told you Ken was a jumper. ;)
By the time the ceremony was over, the rain had slacked off. We still couldn't shoot outside, but we went back on the porch for a couple more.
The happy couple!

Thank you so much Heather and Kevin! It was an honor to be a part of your little wedding!
