Here are a few faves from Melissa and Jeremy’s wedding! I am going to blog an entire post on this amazing wedding later this week…but here is a little preview for now :) Getting ready… The gorgeous dress… Potentially the coolest groom and groomsmen “formal” shot ever… Melissa and her beautiful bridesmaids… LOVE the bouquets! Praying before the ceremony… The ceremony was so glorifying and spiritually moving, it truly touched my heart and lifted my spirit… Married!!! Melissa’s ENTIRE family :) The gorgeous bride and groom… I can’t wait to post more on this wonderful day! Thanks Melissa and Jeremy for allowing me to capture your precious memories…it is such an honor.

Here is a peek into the wedding day of Mr. and Mrs. Wilson! I loved so many elements of this wedding that I really don’t even know where to start writing about it. To be surrounded by so many loved ones, with so much support, is an incredible blessing. The intimacy of their ceremony, and the tenderness of their relationship was truly a reminder to me about what marriage is all about. It was such a privilege to be a part of their day! Starting off with a little detail… Getting ready… All dolled up :) The kiss! How sweet is this? The bride and new sister-in-law… Very cool flutes…love the details! Love this image during the speeches… No kidding - this kid never stopped dancing! About to throw the bouquet :) Emily’s friends loving the dance floor… Okay, the image is a from a series that has got to be my favorite from the entire day! Congratulations and Best Wishes to an awesome couple!

Okay, I know, how boring is a photography blog without pictures? I apologize for the lack of fun blogging lately. On the upside, I have so many backlogged sessions and weddings stored up to post, that there will be an onslaught of images to view very soon. As soon as I make it back into the studio I’ll start posting! I can’t wait to share everything I’ve been shooting with y’all :)

If you follow this blog even the slightest bit, you are familiar with my friend Cristi. We went out shooting for the afternoon in Phoenix a few weeks ago…and here are some lovely images of my beautiful friend!
