Derek and Shelby Thunderbird Chapel Wedding

Aug 19, 2020 | Photography

As a video production OKC company and a wedding photographer OKC team, we had the pleasure of meeting Shelby at an Oklahoma bridal show. Since then, this couple has been nothing but a treat to work with.

A wide view of the Thunderbird Chapel as Derek and Shelby exchange vows during their wedding. Their celebration was photographed by an OKC wedding photography professional from myheartcreative.

Oklahoma Pandemic Wedding

Although they technically had a pandemic wedding, they were bride and groom heroes in our book as they both serve in the medical field while preparing for their big day. Not only are they caring for others with their day jobs, but they also had to take special care of their wedding plans, moving their wedding date back. No small feat when it comes to weddings, but they just kept on smiling.

Shelby, the bride, uses her stethoscope to listen to Derek's, the groom's, heart after their Oklahoma pandemic wedding ceremony.

Family First

Their wedding day was filled with laughter, fun, and family. The setting was in a sweet chapel surrounded by nature, giving us so many lovely opportunities to photograph everyone as the families joined into one!
