Shayla and Shawn – Franklin Park Conservatory wedding

I know right off the bat that some of you – especially 10TV viewers – will recognize the adorable Shayla Reaves in these pictures, and how could you not?!  Her beautiful face and infectious smile are unmistakable.

I, for one, am a loyal 10TV news fan, and have been for years.  I cried when Heather Pick died and when Andrea said she was leaving.  Welcomed into your home nightly, they become like friends.  So when I received an e-mail from “Shayla Reaves” – I knew exactly who was contacting me.  When I met her and Shawn, I was blown away by how warm and friendly they were and how funny they were together.  And the wedding did not disappoint.

I don’t often say things like this in my blog posts because, to me, they sound forced and hokey and like every other photographer’s over-flowery prose, but I just have to say this:  there was so much love in that room on that day from the guests and family for Shayla and Shawn that it was palpable.  And, again, I have to say, how could there not be??  Shayla and Shawn are truly one of a kind.
