Jordan + Jenna: Married! {Ripon, Ca wedding photographer}

Well everyone, get ready for another sentimental wedding with a lot of pictures! When my husband and I were first married we spent a year living in central California, and it was one of the best years of our lives.  We made amazing bonds with people that, 7 years later, are still there.  Jordan was just in high school when we were a part of his life, but he and my husband Dathan were like long-lost brothers (in fact, they have the same birthday except they were born exactly 10 years apart).  When Jordan's mom contacted me and let me know they were interested in having me photograph his wedding to his beautiful bride Jenna, I could not have been more thrilled!  We made a (kid free!) weekend out of it and enjoyed ourselves and this beautiful couple and wedding.  I'm sure this will be a picture overload for some, but I won't apologize ;)

Chris & Amanda: Married! {Antelope Valley, Ca Wedding Photographer}

A few posts back I shared this fun couple's engagement pictures with you all.  I am equally as excited to share their beautiful (and of course FUN) wedding with you now!  We were blessed with a gorgeous day.  The week before there was a horrible fire in Lake Hughes and the sky in the valley was full of ash for days.  It had also been incredibly windy!  But for the wedding the ash had cleared and the wind died down (a little) and we enjoyed a beautiful day.  Chris & Amanda's families just adore them, and it blessed me to see the love that not only they shared for each other, but also that their family & friends had for them.  What an amazing couple... you just can't help but smile when you see them!

First glance :)




Seriously... they are SO fun!

Matt + Sarah: Married! {Lancaster, Ca Wedding Photographer}

This is the quiet & sweet couple I blogged about a week or so ago, when I did their engagement session.  Their wedding was as beautiful & special as their relationship is.  We were shocked to find out that their wedding day ended up being the coldest day of the season so far (and it was an outdoor ceremony!) but everyone braved through the bitter wind and we were still able to get some priceless photos.

And I just have to include these pictures because it was SO funny... the bride put her mom in charge of planning their "grand exit." While some people choose birdseed, or bubbles, or sparklers... mother of the bride had another idea in mind. She purchased hundreds of stuffed bunnies for the guests to throw at the happy couple. Why bunnies, you may ask? Well... what are they known for? Having LOTS of kids! And mom was ready for them to make her a grandma! Isn't that so creative and funny??

Daniel + Stephanie: Married! {Antelope Valley Wedding Photographer}

Well after capturing their engagement party and doing their engagement session, I was SO thrilled to finally photograph Daniel & Stephanie's wedding!  My husband Dathan was my assistant and we had such a good time shooting this wedding at a GORGEOUS venue!
