In her post, she explains that the lady in the wedding dress is her wonderful friend Amanda. On the right is a transparent image of her daughter, Azalee, in her arms.

Azalee is transparent because she passed away in 2013, following a battle with cancer. She wasn't even able to meet Chip, the man who would that day become Amanda's new husband. She was just six years old when she passed on.

Amanda was heartbroken that her little girl wouldn't be there for the special occasion, so Ashley did something incredible. She managed to incorporate a photo of little Azalee into some of the wedding pictures for her friend.

Frantz wrote that the couple released butterflies during the ceremony in remembrance of little Azalee, and there was "not a dry eye to be seen".

She said: "As the butterflies flew up and away, one little beauty decided she wanted to stay a while. She landed right on Amanda (closest to her heart) and stayed while a heart-wrenching cry was shared between the bride and groom (and the entire congregation).

"We all know it was Azalee, just a little whisper from her and God saying "congratulations" and letting everyone know she was nearby to help her mommy cross over into her new path of life...where there is nothing but sunshine ahead!!"

The bride has made the photo her profile picture on Facebook. She wrote: "Words could not express how satisfied I am with Frantz Photography. This beautiful soul was able to capture an absolutely priceless moment on my wedding day with my sweet girl who passed 2 years ago.

"She found a way to include her in my bridal and she did it so well. God has blessed Ashley with many talents and there is no one else o (sic) would have wanted taking pictures on our most special day."
