with each one I am blessed to be a part of, I never for one second take for granted what an amazing day I am being asked to record…

that I am invited to be a very real part of…and asked to create lasting memories for families…

what a blessing to turn a single day…into heirlooms…

so much planning goes into this day…as it should…and it is always so amazing to see it all come together…

the moment when the bride puts on her stunning dress is perhaps one of my favorites…

the light was amazing there…and they had a trailer in my favorite color…it was a win/win in my book!

jenn is a riot…seriously one of the warmest people I have ever met…these kids were hanging out watching us take our wedding to the trailer park and I think they had never seen a more beautiful woman…so jenn treated them to a pic…hilarious

why can’t we all see life through the magic of children’s eyes?

(amazing wedding day coordination by Tiffany Luisi…I am sure jenn loved having a friend she could trust to make the day run smoothly…Thank you Tiffany for keeping me informed and on schedule…such a treat to work with a good coordinator.  If you are looking for an amazing coordinator shoot tiffany an email at TiffanyNLuisi@yahoo.com)

Byron’s entire family is good comedy…but I think his brother’s interpretive dance narrated by his other brother in the place of a traditional toast was pretty much one of the funniest things I have seen in a while…

these guys are hilarious!

DJ Buddy rocked out the party…and it was a partay!

Jenn and Byron…watching you two dance at his point of the evening…

I felt such a deep appreciation for the real privledge it was to not only photograph your wedding, but just to be in attendance.

You guys are good people.  Your love is refreshing.  Your generousity is inspiring.  Your wedding day was simply stunning…

congratulations you two…

your day was beautiful!
