Yesterday Tommy & Lauren became husband and wife. An outdoor wedding near a little lake between apple orchards and grape vines on a beautiful warm October afternoon followed by a perfectly crisp fall evening – couldn’t be more perfect.

Flowers, table settings, tuxes, dresses and makeup all perfect… still diminished in their perfection by a beautiful bride in a perfectly perfect gown.

Vows exchanged, prayers given, kisses and hugs all around.

Sometimes I find myself too much in the moment,  miss a kiss or a warm embrace as I clap and laugh with the crowd or blink away a wet eye… that is why you hire a photographic team for your special moments and I had the pleasure of working with my good friend Leanna Rolla. I think we made a pretty good team.

I hope and pray that Tommy & Lauren have a warm and loving home as they continue their lives together and appreciate the opportunity to be witness to their new beginning!
