I turned away one bride after another for the date, because I&#8217;d already been booked &#8211; by one of my favorite brides of the season. The instant I read the first email from Stef, I knew I wanted to photograph her wedding at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wainwright.org\/weddings.htm\" target = \"blank\">Wainwright House<\/a>. Luckily, she felt similarly about me. I was fortunate enough to be able to photograph <a href=\"http:\/\/kellyvasami.goodgallery.com\/blog\/six-days-old\/\" target = \"blank\">Stef&#8217;s nieces<\/a> last year, so when I showed up to photograph her wedding, I knew quite a few members of the family, and they made me feel even more at home. <\/p>\n<p>So many great <a href=\"http:\/\/www.etsy.com\/\" target = \"blank\">Etsy<\/a> details!<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kellyvasami.goodgallery.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/kearnsfavs_011.jpg\"\/><\/div>\n<p>One of my favorite photos, ever.
