His friends say that Shana turned Eugene into a new man. A better man, even. They said that when he was with Shana that he was a kinder, happier & even a more handsome man. Everyone agreed that Shana & Eugene’s relationship had changed them both. For the better. Their love had transformed them into even more incredible people than they already were. They are the best of friends…they push each other to be better & they make each day better than the last. After three years of being engaged, Shana & Eugene tied the knot in a beautiful, heartfelt ceremony at the Hotel Shattuck Plaza. As Eugene caught the first glimpse of his beautiful bride as she walked down the aisle, his eyes filled with tears. They wrote their own vows which made their ceremony perfectly heartfelt. It was literally the perfect day for two people who are perfectly perfect together.
If you’ve read my blog before, you know how I love to talk about the details that make weddings special. I don’t think that I can adequately describe how fabulous this wedding was. Shana & Eugene’s wedding was chalk full of incredible, colorful & fun details. From the perfect Daffodil bridesmaids bouquets to the paper flower backdrop-each detail was a reflection of their fun personalities. They were married at the Hotel Shattuck Plaza which was an amazing venue-around every corner there were funky chandeliers, wallpaper with fun black & white patterns & beautiful details. I love the bright & bold color palatte that they used for the wedding-the bright yellow & the black were stunning together. My favorite detail overall was Shana’s vintage 1950′s lace wedding gown-I don’t think there are words to explain how gorgeous it was.
Shana & Eugene- I am so, soooooooooo lucky to have clients like you. To finish a wedding knowing that I’ve made two new friends is such a great feeling. I loved working with you both, getting to know your story & documenting the celebration of your love. You both deserve the best that the world has to offer-I know your lives together will be filled with overflowing love & laughter. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything…xoxo, marielle.
LOVE Shana’s shoes…Let me rephrase that. I’m OBSESSED with her shoes…

I am in love with all your detail shots!!! What a cute stinkin wedding!! The colours are so bright and vibrant. How fun.
I have a real problem with your love of shoes. (I am a man, married to a shoe lover, so I guess you can see my issue with your addiction. I am also a photographer (hobby) and must admit your wedding shots were excellent. You do not know me. We connected via ebay but you do good work.
Just a FYI
