Congratulations, Niki and Cordell! I would have to say this was the most beautiful blending of families that I've ever been a part of. When I was first contacted by Ashley Mader of Retrospect Photography, I was thrilled. Ashley and I had been roommates in college and I'd always heard about her cousin that shared my name (when I used to go by 'Niki') but outside of a few pictures of her [GORGEOUS] baby girls, was never able to put a face to 'cousin Niki' until now. <3
The day started off gray and rainy, but by God's grace, by late morning the sun was out and the weather couldn't have been more perfect for their outdoor, riverside wedding.
As for the rest of the details, I'll not pretend to be gifted with eloquence and let the photos speak for themselves. ;)
