Herman + Kena

Lakeview Restaurant | Coventry, CT

Where do I even start with these two?! I know Herman and Kena from one go the gyms I go to! They are both competitive liters in strongman and powerlifting! And they’re just two of my favorite people!! I love how funny and laid back they are! Every time I’m with them its usually a lot of joking around and laughing! And when they asked me about shooting their wedding, I was ecstatic! I knew their day would just be the best!

Kena and Herman have been together for 6 years! They met at a crossfit gym (which is just so cute!) and Kena decided to start texting Herman, wanting to get to know him. And the rest is history! I love how much of a team they are. Always there for one another, supporting anything they do! I love how loving and supportive their family and friends are! Their day was so heartfelt and filled with speeches that I couldn’t help but cry at!

Their day was also filled with the most amazing performances!! Their family had prepared songs to sing and dances! I don’t think I’ve ever been in a room with that much talent!! Of all ages too!! They did a couple Philippine cultural dances too, which was amazing! I’m always all for seeing new things like that! And then they also did a few outstanding hip hop dances! I realized my arm flailing dance moves aren’t cutting it anymore!! I need to learn their dancing ways!! I think one of my favorite performances was a singing performances that suddenly and surprisingly turned into a dance to Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up! It was hilarious and just so so good!!

Kena and Herman, I had the greatest time at your wedding!! You guys are the best and I loved getting to capture your day!! I wish you two so much happiness!! <3 Keeley
