Mercy and Daniel front loaded their wedding and decided to do a first look, their wedding party photos, family formals and bride and groom portraits before the ceremony. I knew going in that we would be using Daniel's parent's backyard for this portion of the day. What I wasn't prepared for was an absolutely picture perfect setting. I couldn't have been more happy with the location if I had picked it myself. And with a front loaded timeline we were able to get the more formal photos taken early, so that Daniel and Mercy could focus on the ceremony and reception.
Take a look at Mercy and Daniel's beautiful day.
