Andrew and Joy were married on Saturday. It was the kind of wedding that gave you a glimpse of the love and commitment they have for each other, something so deep you can hardly describe it or put it into words. As always it is wonderful to photograph a love like this.
Proverbs 18:22 New International Version (©1984)
He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD.
New International Version (©1984)
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

Halleluyah Amen!!!

Joy, you look so beautiful. Andrew is a lucky man!! You all look so happy! I know it will last for a lifetime! <3
Praise The Lord!!!!
Now Andrew,get ready for the questions because every since Joy was a little girl she has always been very inquisitive.
God bless you both with love Welford and Marcie.
Oh My Beautiful Joy !! I am crying at this moment. I have never cried soooooooooo much at a wedding in my life. The love you both share made your day EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL !!! As your aunt Joy,and now nephew Andrew I am very excited about your future as husband and wife. I can’t wait to see the other pictures to cry some more.Congratulations again and “I LOVE YOU BOTH”.
Mary,your work is “AMAZING”. It was a pleasure meeting a photographer as beautiful as her pictures. Thank You Mary !!!!!!! Peace and Blessing to You !!!!!
Ahhhh,LOVE! So beautifully captured in this picture! Congratulations and God’s blessings to the Friends. Kudos to Mary, the genious behind the camera!
This is such a beautiful picture….two best “friends” joined together forever. That is what marriage is supposed to be about. I cried when I saw you in your dress because all I could see was my little baby 83′, my first, first cousin……all grown up. Andrew, I liked you the first time I met you and knew that you would love Joy unconditionally. Enjoy the life you, Joy and Shorty have begun to create :)
Ok..how sad is it that I am just now looking at this with enough time to really read all the comments! I’m so late on this but thanks to Meg, Sarabob, and Sara K for the compliments on my dress and all the kind words from family and friends! Very sweet. Anyhow, I guess I have now exposed the fact that I look at this picture over and over. LOL.
I am SOOOO excited to see the full post on this! These “teasers” are one thing that make me check your site so often (does that just make me nosey? lol)
Sorry for the 2 typos in the my first comment on 5-17; I meant to say: the happiness of your wedding day is written on your facial expressions and then, so beautifully captured by Mary…
beautiful, Mary!!
hooray! glad you made it safe and I am soooo glad you don’t have poison ivy… I might share the story now that I know everyone is living happily ever after!
Greetings from Rome! What a great teaser pic! Mary, thank you so much for a job well done and I really appreciate your flexibility. You are by far the best wedding photographer on the planet!!! Oh and I don’t have poison ivy so no worries there. = ) I can’t wait to see the rest!

Wow! I LOVE her dress! It’s gorgeous– can’t wait to see more of these:)
Andrew and Joy, what a beautiful picture. From the moment I met you Joy, I felt that you already had feelings for Andrew. And, Andrew, I felt that you already had feelings for Joy. What a beautiful couple you make! God created this wonderful institution called marriage. You display His true meaning of the commitment and love meant for his creation. You are the example for all married couples – new and seasoned. Thank you for sharing this very special moment with me. May God continue to bless you.
Andrew and Joy you both look so happy and you are just as beautiful as the first time I met you! Good luck! Andrew, as your friend I am honored to have watched you grow into the man you are and I have no dout you will be a GREAT husband to joy.
Nice pic but I think they’re a little dressed up for picking grapes. Joy, you look great and Andrew, well you’re in the picture too.
That is a beautiful picture – I hope you don’t mind that Elizabeth shared it with me! I can’t wait to hear about the wedding. Joy, you look amazing (and so does Andrew)!
looks like another interesting/great location! vineyard perhaps?? (beautiful hair and dress joy!)
Joy and Andrew – the happiest of your wedding day is written on your facial expressions and then, so beautiful captured by Mary. Elizabeth is right, Joy, you were an absolutely beautiful bride, and the guy with you is pretty handsome, too!!! Ha! Much love to my nephew and my newest niece!
Joy, you looked absolutely amazing…breathtaking! What a beautiful bride! You were just glowing with happiness. This picture is gorgeous and I can’t wait to see the rest of the pictures that are to come. I’m so happy for you and my brother and I love you both very much.
