As a wedding photographer, I get the chance to capture love in all its forms. But some weddings just stand out — like Isaac and Erin’s big day at City View in downtown Evansville. These two were all about keeping things simple, modern, and full of joy. With lots of laughter, an evening ceremony centered around their faith, and a reception packed with dancing and heartfelt toasts, their wedding was the perfect mix of elegance, fun, and love.
If you’re thinking about having a wedding that’s both meaningful and full of energy, let me walk you through Isaac and Erin’s day at City View. Spoiler alert: it was a photographer’s dream.
First off, if you haven’t seen City View in downtown Evansville, you’re missing out. This venue is a hidden gem that’s perfect for couples who want something modern and sleek without all the frills. It’s got those gorgeous, brick walls and a neutral color palette that makes every photo pop. Think high ceilings, polished concrete floors, and big windows that bring in tons of natural light. For Isaac and Erin, it was the perfect backdrop for their wedding day.
Isaac and Erin’s ceremony was one for the books. The ceremony was centered around their faith, with a beautiful moment of prayer and reflection. They talked about their commitment to each other and to God, and you could feel the depth of their love and faith with every word.
But it wasn’t all serious — Isaac and Erin have this infectious energy, and there were plenty of laughs throughout. Their personalities really shone during the ceremony, making it feel personal, genuine, and full of warmth. That mix of sacred and joyful energy was such a beautiful thing to capture on camera.
After the ceremony, it was time to party — and let me tell you, Isaac and Erin know how to throw a good reception. The energy of the room really stood out. The space was buzzing with excitement, laughter, and anticipation for the celebration to come.
The night kicked off with heartfelt toasts from family and friends. There was something so genuine about every word spoken. Whether it was funny stories or sincere well-wishes, the love and connection between Isaac and Erin and their closest people filled the room. As a photographer, those toasts are always some of my favorite moments to capture. The raw emotion and joy in the air just make for unforgettable photos.
And then — the dance floor opened. Let me just say, it was packed. Isaac and Erin’s guests were ready to celebrate. The music was on point, and it didn’t take long for everyone to jump in and start dancing. From the first song to the last, it was nonstop energy. Isaac and Erin had the best time, laughing and twirling under the lights, surrounded by their loved ones. I love when couples are fully in the moment, and these two were having so much fun.
Even though Isaac and Erin’s wedding was modern and simple, there were plenty of little details that made it so personal and special. The subtle floral arrangements, honoring loved ones and their parents wedding day, and the way the space flowed seamlessly from ceremony to reception — it all added up to a day that felt fresh, elegant, and true to who they are as a couple.
And let’s talk about the moment Isaac and Erin saw each other for the first time on their wedding with their “first look”. Big smiles and big emotions as they read letters to each other. It’s one of those moments I live for as a photographer — the kind where you’re just capturing pure love and joy, and everything else fades into the background.
I can honestly say I loved being part of their day. From the gorgeous ceremony to the wild energy of the dance floor, every moment was a joy to capture. Isaac and Erin’s wedding was the perfect example of how a modern, simple wedding can still be filled with deep meaning, endless fun, and memories that will last a lifetime.
