Santana + Zach | A Fall Wedding | Historic Shady Lane in Manchester, PA

I have known Santana and Zach for years. We all worked together at Buffalo Wild Wings, in Bel Air, MD way back in the day. I still remember Zach as “Dougie” as he was affectionately nicknamed in reference to the popular dance and his last name, and I remember Santana as the sweet person who always had a smile and laugh ready to go.

After their years at BWW, they reconnected and sparks flew. Eventually, they found themselves engaged and ready to get married! So when they reached out to me for their wedding photos I was absolutely thrilled they wanted me to document their big day as their wedding photographer.

On the big day, it was a breathtaking perfect October day, with the sun shining and temperature just right. It was my first time at Historic Shady Lane and it quickly jumped to being one of my favorite venues to date. With a vast playground of places to explore and endless options for photos!

Santana was an absolutely stunning bride, with a beautiful dress she picked out at Kleinfeld Bridal in New York City. Her radiant smile and infectious laugh were as vibrant as I remembered it. Zach was equally as dapper as his lovely bride, and his kindness was just as apparent as I remembered in our BWW days. So to see these two wonderful people exchange their vowels in front of their loved ones, was everything I love about my job. After, they were able to celebrate in style thanks to the wonderful vendors who helped make their day special.
