The Ramsey
Where do I start with these two? Let’s just say it was all meant to be. These two met me out at Bernardus Lodge for a quick session in the Rose Garden… where they will be married in late June of this year. I was lucky to meet both of their mom’s too! They were all there that morning doing a tasting for the wedding and it was the perfect time to connect.
I love getting to know my couples a bit before their big day. It allows us to chat and have a little fun and get to know each other.
Their chemistry is electric and we had so much fun together. In all of my years shooting, I’ve never had a groom throw a bride up in the air so high! I’ve had dad’s throw their little one’s up – geez! He is strong!
For fun I asked them to fill out a love questionnaire of sorts – check out their answers below.
Cannot wait for their wedding at the gorgeous Bernardus Lodge and Spa this summer. Stayed tuned for their wedding blog post!

Was so happy to finally meet Tarin and Ryan a few days ago. Long story short, my husband Brian and I (the officiant) have been in touch with them and planning their big day since July of 2019. When the pandemic came to town, things had to change a bit.
Their wedding was slated to take place at a gorgeous local hotel right on the water for 120 guests. With Covid, they gave it some thought and decided that they still wanted to get married this year and on the same date – just now a lot smaller and in her Mom’s backyard with just a few guests.
I had suggested that we get to know each other and do an engagement session before the wedding . We had a lot of fun together and I loved getting to know them both.
Looking forward to October 9th you two!
