Dustin & Lindsey: Buffalo NY, Wedding Celebration at Knotting Hill Farm

07.05.25

Dustin and Lindsey’s wedding on July 5th, 2025, at Knotting Hill Farm was such a meaningful day for me—Dustin has been my brother’s best friend for 30 years, and the two of them grew up alongside me through so many years of life and memories. Being chosen to document their wedding felt like being part of family, and having my own family involved made it even more special.

Their journey began a year earlier with their engagement session at Letchworth State Park. Walking through the park, they shared the story of Dustin’s proposal, showing me the exact spot where he popped the question. It was an intimate and joyful session, filled with laughter, love, and a sense of anticipation for what was to come.

On their wedding day, emotions ran high. Lindsey shared a first look with her dad before seeing Dustin, creating such a tender, meaningful moment. They exchanged private vows in the morning, and I had to keep a few tissues close—I couldn’t help but tear up as I watched them start this new chapter together. They also practiced their aisle dip and kiss, a sweet preview of the celebration just hours away. Adding to the joy, they had a special visit from their puppy, a fun and heartwarming moment that made the day feel even more personal. Watching Dustin and Lindsey begin their own beginning after growing up alongside me left me truly moved.

Their reception was held in a beautifully decorated barn, elegant and warm, where every detail told a story. A memorial wall honored loved ones who couldn’t be there, and a display celebrated family members who had married before them. It was a day full of love, tradition, and connection—perfectly reflecting who Dustin and Lindsey are as a couple.
