Kristin and Jason met online but Jason’s flexible job allowed him to move to North Carolina to get to know her.  Afterward, she was able to secure a job out in California to be near him.  But they had the wedding in Buffalo to be near Kristin’s family….so this couple is literally all over the map!

The wedding was a family affair.  Her father, a longtime pastor, was the officiant.  Kristin’s brother Patrick was the wedding coordinator.  There are so many beautiful shots from this wedding…

Being in Buffalo was nostalgic even for me.  I’d been in Boston’s 6 feet of fresh snow the week before, so Buffalo’s accumulated 4 feet paled in comparison.  All the same, the drive up was a pretty cold one—but the company was warm and welcoming.

Kristin’s expressions of pure joy during the ceremony were priceless.

Everyone was wondering whether they’d be messy or neat with the cake.  We should have known. 

We went outside in the snow and grabbed a few quick shots before everyone froze their noses off.  Jason was a gentleman and gave Kristin his coat until just before we took the photo. I like how you can even see their breath in the first photo.

Kristin had a few friends who were rather excited about the bouquet toss.

…and they had a little fun reversing the garter.  Jason acted like he couldn’t find Kristin’s and then she reached up his pant leg to find a garter there.

Here are two of my favorite shots ever:
