Luke and I loaded up the car, and traveled over to the keystone state for an incredible wedding weekend of creative wedding photography. Bedford Springs is a historic landmark in the Pennsylvania countryside, full of stories, history & beauty. Just like Travis & Alex :) Bedford Springs Wedding PhotographyIt was a wedding weekend like no other, full of charm and vintage-flavored love. The beauty of having your wedding at Bedford Springs Resort is that they have it all in house – spa, hair dressing, you name it, they’ve got it. I simply loved Alex’s dressing room / bridal suite. The light coming in from the windows allowed for some incredibly gorgeous detail photographs!Bedford Springs Wedding PhotographyAlex & Travis elected to have me do a private introduction, or “first look” as it’s often called.  Prior to us beginning their creative wedding photography session on the grounds of Bedford Springs Resort & Spa, I found a beautiful private area for them to see each other for the first time.
