Protected: Jason & Catherine // Sweet wedding at Estate on Second

I love a good bridesmaids reveal. Unfortunately, it doesn`t happen every wedding... BUT if the timing is right and the setup favors a moment like this, the bridesmaids showing their truest emotions, it never disappoints. Look at all these reactions right at the peak of anticipation! Can you imagine starting your day with this kind of encouragement? Gawd, its the best.

I`m so excited to be at Descanso Gardens next week for a gorgeous spring wedding. Cant lie, I love Descanso in the spring. I really hope its showing off like it was in these pictures. Fingers crossed for all the blooms and a beautiful day for the lovely couple we get to capture.

Gosh its been a while since I have gotten to put together a proper Flaylay. Coming from a wedding photographer, seems that a lot of couples are recently opting out of these precious little setups and allotting time towards other things like mingling at cocktail hour and late night photos. It makes so much sense to me that (if they were pitted against the choice) anyone would choose to spend time on their precious day with people that traversed from out of town to celebrate with them. But selfishly, I wish they might add time or sneak in some way to include flatlays like these. In any case, I love how my clients choose to spend their time and love their people, their wedding day, and the moments that fly by with haste. THOUGH, I would never want to convince someone to give up any of those warm memories for a more decorative moment. BUT... if we can add it in, then I will absolutely be all over styling these shots faster than you can say please.

I need this wedding to take up more space on my grid, because it was just phenomenal. Cape Horn Estate SCREAMED of natural beauty and incredible landscaping with the mountain view of the Columbia Gorge and the brilliant florals that surrounded the entire property. It is unmatched with its unique and jaw-dropping scenes.

But far past the beauty of the estate, MacKenzie and Dan just shined with their love for each other and their family&friends all day long. Their focus was on the beauty if the environment and their love for adventure.

Minus the sunburn, I would do it ALL over again just to rewatch their unhindered joy shine everywhere.
