Things got a little crazy and a bit spicy during my session with Jade + Makaiya... and that exactly how your girl likes it. Gimme all that goodness! Even though we were asked to leave by a mother because her "children are present" we still made the best of our time and im stoked by the results that were captured!
There isn't much better than two in love.. but throw in a canoe in a secret location and you have ALL of my attention! Lets get this blog post rollin'.
Maggie and Cody are pretty much the most attractive couple you will ever meet. They were put to the test (as well as myself) on this super hot 90 degree day.. most of it spent in direct sunlight. I didn't hear one ounce of complaining, but instead, they offered all the googly eyes and gentle touches that makes everyones heart swoon.
Jenny + Nick were a blast to photograph.. they were pretty much my ideal couple to shoot- willing to relax, have fun, and do whatever I brought up! :) We took some spicy shots, some chill shots, and even squeezed in a game of Red Rover!
When Kendyl got ahold of me and asked me to shoot her wedding I was so excited- Redding is one of my favorite places and it is SO beautiful! Its in the Northern part of California, not what most people picture when Cali comes to mind. It is peaceful and down to earth- Just like Kendyl and Torsten. Their love is something insane. I have never witnessed a ceremony bursting with pure, raw love as much as theirs. When the couple walked up the isle after their first kiss they had to stop, take a breath and let the most beautiful cry out. It was as if they finally reached the finish line after all the preparing, preserving and sacrifice.. along with the fun along the way too. It was such a beautiful thing to witness and I couldn't help but cry a bit behind my camera as well.
Taylor and Josh were such a joy to work with. No matter what is going on, Taylor always seemed to have a joyful and uplifting spirit to her. She definitely could have keyed the phrase "lights up a room" because her love for Jesus as well as for others can't be hidden.. and I love that about her! Josh stares at Taylor like every man should stare at his wife, in awe and wonder! It is such a beautiful thing to witness and my hope is that you'll catch a glimpse of that love through these images as well!
