There is so much deep history behind the building of the Harkness Chapel on the Case Western Reserve University campus in Cleveland that I knew it would be the perfect backdrop for a romantic day of wedding photography. What a perfect wedding venue for an intimate celebration.

I called in some friends and we put together a styled photoshoot to help show the space at it's best. The best surprise was when Pablo started to serenade Marcella on the harpsichord. What a beautiful day!
