This was truly a dream wedding… beautiful bride, easy-going fun groom, amazing family, fun wedding party, and a gorgeous location and details.  Oh, and just absolutely perfect weather!  Ross and Rachel were such a pleasure to work with!  I really could have photographed Rachel all day.  She looked STUNNING!  I love love love love LOVE her hair and the way her eyes just pop!

We started the day at Rachel’s parents gorgeous Paradise Valley home.  I just loved their front room, these shutters, and the wedding present tower.  I thought this was a great spot to show off her gorgeous dress.

I warned you about those eyes!  INCREDIBLE!  I remember liking them from her engagement photos, but wow… I’m still blown away with how intense they are!  Yeah, I’m a tad bit jealous.  OK, maybe a lot!

The girls popped into the locker room just before the ceremony to freshen up.  Jennifer and I went in to check on them and saw this scene… love that I was able to capture this with my long lens as to not interrupt what was unfolding.

I just had to end of this shot that Jennifer Garbett got… this just makes me smile.  I honestly don’t think I have seen girls get THAT into the bouquet toss before!  There is some serious competition going on here!

I have had the wonderful privilege of working with the lovely ladies at Mother’s Milk this past year.  They are an amazing resource for all new mothers and soon to be mothers… if you are pregnant, have a newborn, or just need a baby gift, they are definitely worth checking out.

I have been working with an incredibly talented framer and love these new whimsical frames she has been making for me.  They are on display at Mother’s Milk, so take a look and let me know if you would be interested having us put together a wall gallery for you.

We have been having a blast the last week and half with my sister-in-law, niece and nephew.  My kids just love hanging out with their cousins - especially when it involved a trip to Disneyland in the middle of the week!  (More on that in another post).

And while they are in town, I just had to grab a few images of them.  I just love these guys… and with that wink, how can you not?

Garrett and Riley…. I love you guys!  We sure miss you already and can’t wait until we get to see you again!
