Wedding Photography at the Waldron Arts Center – Bloomington, Indiana
This wedding featured on The Bride’s Cafe
Post by Cathy.
The dining table was covered in vases of flowers and bowls of petals, and the girls were dancing and prancing about the house with excitement as they prepared for the day. Enter us, the photographers. “It’s like I know you but I don’t,” she said, eyes wider than half-dollar coins. Anna is perhaps one of the most excited brides and devoted blog-stalkers we’ve ever met. Look back through a few of our blog posts and watch her comments grow more and more ecstatic as her own day drew near. She absolutely could not wait to marry Braden. The second Anna walked down the aisle and met him under the branches of the oak tree she’d played under as a child, it was as if everything was right. They breathed a sigh of relief, and spoke to each other some of the most devoted, heart-felt words I’ve ever heard. Everything about that ceremony was perfect, from the presence of their closest friends and family, laughing and crying, to the odd assortment of mis-matched chairs in which they sat, each one holding a spirit and personality of its own. It was perfectly them.
Anna and Braden – Thank you both so much for giving us the pleasure of capturing your day. Your personalities, your wit, and your love for each other and your families inspire us. You will forever be two of our favorite people.
Lots of love, C+D.

When Nick, Anna’s brother went off with Braden to get ready she had to hide. But she’d always try to sneak a peek.![]()
