Alex & Glen Get Ready to Roll!
Alexandra has some relaxing chat time with her girls before donning her gorgeous wedding gown. Her expressions are so adorable. My favorite thing about Alexandra?

Yeah, she took this shot herself :) Glen helps his father achieve perfection Beautiful detail shot of The Rancho Sol Del Pacifico More previews to follow soon! →

Seth & Rachel Commit to Make Salsa
I will always remember the sweet spirits of Seth and Rachel! They had a lake front wedding at The Inn on The Lake I started at the salon with Rachel. I kind of have a thing for reflections. And flowers. And pretty girls :) One of my favorite moments. Grandma was trying to respect the fact that I was a "photojournalist." But she accidentally looked at me →

Jennica & Tyler

I loved connecting with you and your families!

Helen & Wyatt
Helen and Wyatt were married on Helen's family farm right outside of Charlotte, NC. Helen is so naturally beautiful and vibrant. Her mother glances at her in the mirror.
