Mushka Shemtov and Shmuel Matusof - Toledo Wedding Photography

On June 10, Stevie and Bob photographed a traditional Orthodox Jewish wedding. The bride and groom share a very serious moment as they pray during the wedding vows. This picture perfectly explains the seriousness of the wedding because the bride wears a vail to cover her face as the groom marries her for inner beauty. The bride is accompanied by her mother at her side and the groom is accompanied by his father at his side while he prays.

The men and women are separated by a barrier during the reception and only dance with their own gender.

Rachel and Eric Ade! - Toledo Wedding Photography

For the past few weeks, June 11 was the date everyone around the studio had been anticipating most. One of our own, Rachel Holt married Eric Ade! The wedding was so creative down to the very last detail.

Eric and Rachel designed the back ground of their wedding. They created it to look like brick walls and a yellow stand with a red chandelier.
