Lauren and Mark – Joyful and Bright Backyard Wedding Photos, Finger Lakes NY

Lauren and Mark are all about enjoying their life together and their wedding day was the perfect tribute to that. It was a giant party on the land that has been in Mark’s family forever and a beautiful celebration of two magnificent humans.

We started the morning with Lauren and her favorite people. There were plenty of drinks, a whole lot of laughter, beautiful jewelry (including rings made by Mark), and just the right amount of Lizzo. They danced it out through hair and makeup, and the brief tornado that was the groomsmen getting ready, before helping Lauren into her magnificent dress. A grin and some finishing touches later, and it was time to walk down the aisle.

One of the most important parts of their wedding (besides the whole getting married thing) was the land that it took place on. Mark grew up on it, they were engaged on it, and they have spent so much of their lives on it. It was the perfect place to say their vows. From the second that they saw each other, they could not stop smiling. They exchanged rings and a kiss to cheers from their loved ones and danced their way back down the aisle.

We wandered our way through the fields with a fluffy escort from their beloved pup Willow to soak it all in and take some portraits before they made their way into the party.

Amid toasts filled with eyes-closed laughter, stellar dance moves, a flat tire briefly leaving us stranded up on a hill for sunset, and so much damn love, we celebrated the heck out of Lauren and Mark. Their extraordinary day ended with a full moon and fireworks — it could not have been more perfect.

Cheers you two! Thank you again for all of your warmth and joy. It was nothing but a pleasure to work with you all.
