Brendan and Nicole were simply adorable to photograph. They were the kind of couple that soaked in every detail and enjoyed each moment of their day, and their happiness was contagious. They had their Little Mermaid inspired wedding, and Brendan even surprised Nicole by having his suit special made as a nod to the classic […]
