Jared Birt Photography

Every once in a while something in life is dropped in front of you completely undeserved and unexpected. Those are some of the best moments in life. Traveling to Italy was one of those instances. Jon and Megan Henderson are clients from Washington, DC who made our trip possible. Our paths crossed completely by referral and even though we didn't meet them until we arrived in Italy, we felt like we had known them and their families forever. They were some of the most loving and welcoming people we have ever met and it made our time in Malcesine so memorable. The wedding was held at the castle in Malcesine and the reception was at very nice restaurant on the waterfront of Lago di Garda with an amazing mountain view and a classic sunset. It was so incredible and the day was beautiful...just an intimate and heartfelt gathering of close family and friends to celebrate John and Megan's marriage. My favorite part of the day was enjoying the reception dinner with them, not just as their photographer, but as a guest and new friend and hearing the toasts that went around the table. It was a genuine outpouring of the love shared by all.
 
We took so many photos on our trip and they cannot do Italy justice. It is so much more beautiful and surreal in person. Rebekah and I are so very thankful and blessed because of this experience. We will forever treasure it and will keep the perspective of the Italian way of life as we live ours. Congratulations Jon and Megan...we pray that the Lord will bless your marriage and keep you close to each other. Thanks again for a wonderful time and for hiring me to photograph your day in Italy. We hope to see you two again and to make it  back to Italy one day.
