The Barn at Rayne Run / Aleah & Tyler

One of my high school besties tied the knot at The Barn at Rayne Run in Marion Center, PA—and I had the absolute honor of capturing every moment of it! There’s something extra special about photographing a wedding when you’ve known the bride for years. It felt like stepping into a full-circle moment, camera in hand, heart full.

The day started out wild. I’m talking full-on monsoon vibes—dark skies, pouring rain, and the kind of wind that makes you second-guess updos and tent rentals. But just when we were all starting to accept that it might be a soggy celebration, the most incredible thing happened.

The exact moment she was ready to walk down the aisle, the rain stopped. The clouds pulled back like curtains on a stage, and the sun broke through, lighting everything up in the softest, dreamiest golden glow. Blue skies stretched above us, and from that point on, the weather was chef’s kiss perfect.

We spent the rest of the day soaking in the sunshine, laughter, happy tears, and all the just-married joy. And as if the day hadn’t already been magical enough, it ended with a burst of fireworks lighting up the night sky—literal sparks to end a day full of love and light.

I couldn’t be happier for her, and I’m so thankful to have been part of a day that was clearly written in the stars!
