Barbeque, pig roast, deliciously smoked meaty goodness… Now that I have the carnivore’s attention, have you ever heard the phrase “Pig Pickin”? Why has this not become standard verbiage for those kick ass, meat centered events that everyone loves?
Nicole and Troy, one of our gorgeous couples from the south, celebrated their wedding at Battlefield Bed and Breakfast in Gettysburg, PA. 
The B&B sits on a remote piece of property, filled with historical decor including some ‘dress up’ items which looked fabulous on the groomsmen! Nicole and Troy’s event was much different for me photographically as Whitney was rocking lead female photographer, alongside Jason. Being 8.5 months pregnant I arrived for the ceremony and left after the first dance, serving more as a second shooter, grabbing candids and spending a few moments with the couple for some creatives.
Through her planning, Nicole emailed often, always full of cheer about details and tidbits which were amazing! Aside from the traditional southern Pig Pickin’, she planned on an old fashion ice cream bar, complimentary and comfortable bridesmaid dresses, a high energy first dance, and a kicked back fire pit for when the sun went down. One of my favorite moments from the day was when the rain rolled in at the tail end of Nicole and Troy’s ceremony. Huge drops were starting to fall, yet these two could have cared less… plus it was a nice cool off to the warm July afternoon.
