I think my favorite aspect of my job is getting to know my couples (okay, ONE of my favorite..) But seriously, it’s SO cool. You get to see them wearing so many different hats, in so many different states of mind. There’s the initial ‘engagement session self’ where you can’t help but feel vulnerable and fumble in front of a new stranger. Then there’s the frantic/nervous/excited self in the moments before the ceremony. And alas, the fun and free dance machine self at the reception. At the end of it all, I truly feel like I made new friends. I saw them through the ups and downs and in-betweens and hey, we might as well move in together.
Colleen was a stunning bride, as you can clearly see above. I can tell you that the glow you are seeing was actually HER, not just the fancy film I used for the Hasselblad… she was radiating and so excited to be starting this new journey with her soul mate. Watching Ryan and Colleen expose their love in front of everyone they knew and adored was amazing. Congrats guys!


Colleen’s mother gave her a music box as a wedding gift… full of cards with sweet memories inside. Seeing this gesture, and then witnessing Colleen withRyan’s daughter (now her new daughter!) melted my heart. 


I LOVE first looks! :] Look at that proud groom.



I thought this was the most creative version of a guestbook… guests use an ink pad and place their fingerprint on a tree and sign their name… SO cool!
