Milford and Sarah: Lakefront Wedding by Raleigh Wedding Photographer Dave Shay
Having known Milford for a long time, it was a pleasure to see him start his journey with Sarah, and when he first reached out to me, I was happy to make the trip from Raleigh to document his proposal as well as their wedding day. I couldn’t be happier for the two of them and I am so excited to call you guys friends. Here’s to the next steps life takes you on!
What was one thing about your day that made it special to the two of you?
The laid back, casual, family gathering atmosphere made our wedding memorable. Everyone was welcome and everyone felt like family. It was a big family picnic!
What was the most helpful advice you received when it came to planning your wedding?
Don’t give up haha
What was the biggest reason you chose me to photograph your wedding?
Because you’re the man and the best photographer this side of the Mississippi. Also knowing you since I was like two had a part in it as well. Great to share that day with a friend.
