Vanessa & Jon- wedding!

This is the first wedding i got to shoot for Ralph for. Under his business Pin Up Bride Photography. For the most part i spent the time with the guys, my first time going to the hash house too.. and YUM! They were such a fun group, and were great around the camera! 

Her shoes were fabulous! love the bling! 

 

let's be honest, these guys were definitely not shy, and i had such a fun time with everyone! 

They had such fun details and their guests were so much fun! the cute couple above i couldn't stop snapping photos of, i mean i loved this moment, he quickly dipped her back, and they were just so great together! and the decor and floral arrangements were seriously amazing. 

This was the first time i got to shoot with Ralph and also work with his beautiful wife Deborah! It was a stunning wedding, and such a fun couple! 

a beautiful gift from a beautiful friend.

Friday morning i woke up to an AMAZING surprise. Let's start a few years ago shall we. Two friends of mine from college got married, their anniversary coming up in July! and i have had the opportunity first to see them fall for each other, but also photograph their engagement photos, wedding photos, and a trash the dress session. They're absolutely amazing, and so much fun! Plus photographing their cuteness also allows me to hang out with them for a bit.

anyway, like i said friday morning i go to the door and there's a surprise package waiting for me from Haeli! i couldn't even believe it. i opened it and started to cry even before finding the letter. i'm so undeserving of this gift, but her friend Jaimie painted a photo from my wedding, a great photo of my husband and i. I can't wait to hang it up, but i had to photograph it first to show you! so here's a few.

it's a photo that in black and white i have hanging in our bedroom, so i am SO excited she chose this one to have painted.

look at that detail!

it's gorgeous! The reason she said she sent it is 1- for our 2nd anniversary present and 2- as a thank you for photos of her and her husband jon. She absolutely is such a blessing in my life, and i'm so thankful to have her as a friend. Thank you Haeli girl!

i'm so excited about this gift, and i can't thank her enough and show her how much it means to me! thank you so much, it's so beautiful.

Jennifer & Eric- wedding sneak peek!

I just couldn't help myself. as soon as i got home from shooting this fabulous wedding, i immediately unloaded all the photos, and yes, even started editing a few for a sneak peek. sooo cute!

couldn't you tell Jennifer just hated the camera ;)

wait until you see the rest, and all the crazy awesome details!

Vanessa & Jon- sneak peek wedding!

Let's be honest here, when the groomsmen start out having this much fun, you know it'll be a good day. 

oh and this.

that's all you get! :) stay tuned! 

Ashley and Robert- married!

These two love birds had a liking for mad-men style, and it showed throughout the entire day in details! 

I had such a great time shooting this wedding, and Ralph of Pin Up Bride Photography got the gig! i was just along for the second shooting on this day. i've been showing you a few sneak peeks of this wedding but really Ashley was just absolutely gorgeous. she ended up wearing two dresses!- the second at the reception, cute little vegas dress. 

While Ralph was with the girls as they got ready, i got to go shoot the guys! and it was so much fun! we had a lot of extra time and just wandered around the Wynn. it was actually my first time shooting there, and man it's beautiful! 

Robert and Ashley didn't see each other before the wedding, which is always so special, unfortunately Ralph and i couldn't shoot during the ceremony, as it was in a chapel at the Wynn. But it's alright, we got some FANTASTIC photos all day, and they still had another photographer during that time too! 

i should've stolen one of these cupcakes ;) i was busy with all the fun going on, especially in the photo booth!- i just didn't have time to go and grab one, but i've been drooling over them. It was a perfect day for a wedding, and everything turned out perfectly! LOVE!
