Whew! It took a rental car, two nights in a bartered-for condo, two rented lenses, two ferry rides, and two pairs of shoes, but it was all so worth it to get to photograph this beautiful couple getting married. If I hadn’t been a teenager when I’d gotten married (Ok, not really. But close!), I would have LOVED to have a beach wedding. I was so lucky to be the photographer for this Crystal Beach wedding this past weekend. It was just as lovely as I thought it could be.

So, this first shot might just be my favorite of the whole darn thing. My husband cracks me up all day long, and I don’t think we have one picture that captures the pure love and laughter that this one does. I’m totally jealous! This was during their first dance, and they were having such a wonderful time together, enjoying those first moments as husband and wife, and the groom was whispering funny things in the bride’s ear the whole time. It was very sweet to watch. 

How’s this for a “kiss the bride” moment? I’m not sure it’s appropriate to be so jealous of my clients. 🙂This beautiful bride and her wedding planner put together such a perfect beach house wedding. The lovely bride had previously sent me her Pinterest inspiration board to give me some ideas of pictures she wanted (GREAT idea, all you brides-to-be out there). Well, when I walked onto the deck of the beach house that morning, I was astonished! Her Pinterest board had been brought to life. When I get cranking with my edits, I’ll do a post of all the pretty little details they had.

We didn’t specifically do a bridal shoot before this wedding, so I wanted to make sure I gave her some “bridal portrait” kind of images, too. So sweet and pretty.

The bride put so much hard work and effort and organization into this wedding. In my eyes, it was perfect. I hope it turned out to be the wedding you wanted. Love these details!Mr. and Mrs. G, thanks so much for hiring me to capture your special day. I always feel especially lucky to witness a couple profess their lifelong love. I can’t wait to show you the rest of your beautiful pictures!

Love, Andrea
