SULLY CLEMMER PHOTOGRAPHY

indianola mississippi wedding – martin and leslie

Posted in weddings

When I first saw Martin’s house in the Mississippi Delta, I knew that it was special.  Surrounded by cotton and historic homes, this oasis is incredibly stunning.  Each building on the property has quite an impressive history, from surviving fires to housing generations of relatives.  There is even an old tennis court that was converted for the wedding reception.  Months of hard work were rewarded with this one day of Delta perfection.

It was the quintessential “do it yourself” wedding- from the bouquets, to the lights, to the food.  Heck, Martin even forged the wedding rings himself.  Everything about this wedding was made with love.  And for those of us lucky enough to be there, we could feel it the entire time.

I’ve been having a hard time coming up with ways to describe this wedding.  It was gorgeous.  It was amazingly beautiful.  It was everything a Delta wedding should be.  Yet none of these phrases fully capture the moments of beauty that occurred on this day.

 

Hopefully these pictures do it better.

    Oh my goodness-my kingdom for a local cotton field!
    Beautifully done.
    I love the clever way you used the tilt shift in the close-up of the dress with the cotton field in the background.

    And I really love your arrangement. Seeing all the details and setup and hints to the bride’s style, without yet glimpsing her, was suspenseful in the very best way. Makes her seem not only obviously lovely but a bit mysterious. 🙂

    Your eye and your processing, too…just…wow!ReplyCancel
