Photographer Follows Love Down the Aisle of Their Dreamy Wedding

In 2011, Russian photographer Murad Osmann started following his then-girlfriend, Natalia Zakharova, to gorgeous locales around the world. His ongoing Follow Me project has chronicled their wanderlust-inspiring travels to places like Spain, Turkey, and more recently, India. The romantic photographs feature the couple holding hands, Zakharova at the helm, as they take in the landmarks and scenery together. So, it's only appropriate that the couple kept up this sweet tradition for their recent nuptials.

Osmann captured the magical day much like the other photos on his immensely-popular Instagram – he's following his bride! The venue looks nothing short of breathtaking, and as they're surrounded by family and friends, it seems like the perfect day. Osmann posted one photo of him being lead to a crimson-colored door (sans guests) and captioned it, “#followmeto the wedding with my love @yourleo. I promise to hold your hand and tell you I love you every day for the rest of our lives.”
