Nico & Melissa: Married!

It was truly an honor to be a part of Nico & Melissa's wedding. They met at Eternity Bible College, where Nico had a job in the library. He overheard Melissa say that she needed to use the library to study and he offered to open it early whenever she needed. Their early morning study sessions eventually started conversations about their love for the Lord and their dreams of becoming missionaries. There was a connection there, but they were never more than friends until they both ended up transferring to the same college. They knew at that point it must have been meant to be.
They both have a heart to serve, and know that their marriage will allow them to serve the Lord together better than they ever could by themselves.

This wedding was so beautiful and the atmosphere was just so happy. I felt blessed just to be there. You could really feel the love that the EBC family shared.

Nico & Melissa, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day. I can't wait to hear all of the amazing things the two of you do together, I know you are going to change this world for the better. It was truly a joy to meet you.  :)

The lovely Kelly & I shot this wedding together and I'm so thankful she invited me along! I love you girl!

I spent the morning with the guys watching The Wedding Planner and football, while Kelly was with the beautiful bride.

There was a vent in the ground that was blowing Melissa's dress!
