Second Shot for Jennifer Murray Photography

Find your name in the "Zoo Parking Lot"

Zoo Animals adorned the reception tables

So many beautiful details made this wedding so unique
I received the incredible opportunity to second shoot for Jennifer Murray Photography just a few months after enrolling in a course from Photography Educators, Amy & Jordan. Jenny is a fellow student in the course and I was over the moon to be able to learn from a more seasoned student & photographer.
Stephanie and Randy's wedding had so many beautiful, unique, and "special to them" details. The colors were gorgeous and bold and you could tell how much thought and planning went into the day. Their unforgettable ceremony (you'll see why in a minute) took place at the Racine Zoo followed by the reception at Roma Lodge in Racine.
I'm so thankful I got to be part of Stephanie and Randy's special day! Please enjoy these photos through my lens of my first wedding as a second shooter!


Getting ready at the Roma Lodge in Racine



First Look between Stephanie & Randy at the Racine Zoo

















Their unity ceremony was making a PB&J sandwich

The canvas was painted by an elephant!

Shots, shots, shots!

The ladies arrived to the ceremony in the Racine Zoo Choo Choo Train
Instead of a flower girl, they had a beer guy - and it was a HUGE hit!!

... and it begins!

The big surprise was the officiant inside of a dinosaur costume! Stephanie and Randy kept it a surprise for their guests and the entire crowd could not stop laughing! It was a windy day, and the dino head kept bobbing back and forth. It was a hilarious moment to witness and I'm sure it took the nerves off of Stephanie and Randy as all the eyes were no longer on them!



Find yourself a spouse who looks at you the way Randy looks at Stephanie. SO sweet!
As part of your wedding package at Racine Zoo,
you get to FEED THE GIRAFFES!!!
