When I entered St. Stanislaus Kostka Church in Michigan City, Indiana to photograph the Catholic wedding of Natalie and Greg, I was immediately struck by the architecture and the unique green tinge in the stone walls. It is truly a majestic buidling.

I took my place inside the pews as Natalie and her Dad waited to walk down the aisle together...
The father and the bride were both overjoyed as they walked past family and friends toward the front of the church where Dad would give away his daughter to the groom.
This grand old Catholic church in the heart of downtown Michigan City is a wonder to see. The balcony was quite a hike, but Catholic ceremonies tend to run at least an hour, giving me plenty of time to get some photographs from above as well as on ground level.

Something about the tradition of this church led me to convert many photographs into vintage looking, sepia toned wedding photos from the days of old. Here is one of the bride and groom in prayer..
One of my favorite moments was capturing this future bride peering into the aisle to get a better look...

I love the groom's "hey, we did it" expression as the newly married couple retreats from the church...
Natalie booked me as her photograph while living in Washington D.C. I met her and her Father when she was here on a break from school last year. It was an honor to photograph her wedding and she did an incredible job planning it from such a long distance.
