Sunday evening, Samantha & Charles tied the knot in front of their family and friends at the Estate at Sunset Farm. This venue is unique in that you can have your ceremony in so many different locations around the property. Samantha and Charles chose to have their wedding ceremony in the shade of tall trees, with the late afternoon light streaming through the branches. The effect was pure magic.

Every wedding day is different, but at this Dayton wedding, something happened that I have never seen before. I have been photographing weddings for quite a while, but this was definitely a first. Here’s the scoop. Nichole & Kyle got married on the same day as Nichole’s grandparents. They wanted to celebrate that they share the same special wedding anniversary day, so they surprised her grandparents with a cake of their own during the reception. It was such a sweet moment.
