Britni & Tristin rocked the Villa di Felicita with their wedding this past Friday.  Her broach bouquet set the tone for the day.  Not bad eh?

I figured it would also be a good place for the ring shot. :)

I enjoy watching couples laugh on their wedding day.  I more enjoy getting to photograph it.  I most enjoy this next image.
Thank you two for a great day.

Nikki & James rocked The Mug Machine.  Check it.

This month’s rewind has two parts to it.  Part 1 is mucho mucho favorite images from last April.  Part 2 is one of my favorite things I have ever posted on my site.

Part 1.

Part 2:  Last year I asked one of my brides who broke off her engagement if she would be willing to share what that process was like and everything that it involved.  She was kind and brave enough to say yes.  It is still one of the most viewed pages on my website and  was the top Google result for broken engagement for a while last year.  Regardless of how great your engagement  or relationship is you should take the time to read what Kristin had to share.  (Read her story here.)

Nikki & James had a great day at The Belgium House in Longview. It had been a little while since I had shot there and it’s already great to go back. Jan and her staff do such a great job taking care of their brides. If you are getting married in the Longview area you should take a look at their place. On to the images!

James surprised Nikki with this wedding band during the ceremony.  (She was happy.)

They exchanged gifts during their First Look.

Nikki got James a watch.  (He was happy.)

One of the cool things they did was have a part of the ceremony that James’ daughter  came up and the minister spoke to all three of them together.

I was totally hoping the Matron of Honor would get frazzled and read the welcome note side from the Fairfield Inn. :)
Thank you two for a great afternoon.  Mug Machine magic coming your way later this week!

I love designing and giving my clients big giant wedding albums. It’s a tangible item you can hold in your hand and there is something extra fun about snuggling on the couch and looking at your wedding day together. It’s even more fun once your have kids and THEY get to hold a big giant book all about your day. I thought I would share a sneak peek at the latest album I am working on. Melissa & Ross were married about a week ago and their day was full of amazing little details. Enjoy.
