I am so excited to get to share images from one of my favorite weddings.  Ever.  I know, I am a bit biased.  After all, the groom was my baby brother and the last of the 4 siblings to get hitched.  But this seriously was a wedding for the books.  Starting with the fact that they only had a month and a half to plan the wedding so they could make sure that all of the bride's siblings, one of whom was moving overseas, could be there.  Oh, and did I mention that the bride has a killer-awesome brand new job, so most of the planning was done by the groom?  And let's not forget the moment a week before the wedding when the weather forecast for a drought-ridden CA showed 100% chance of rain the weekend of the wedding...and the barn venue was not waterproof, so a quick venue change was in order.

But none of that seemed to matter to this laid-back couple.  Rehearsal Friday was a soggy day, but by wedding Saturday, the skies were blue and slightly overcast, making for beautiful images.  I don't normally shoot weddings, and with a 3-year-old flower girl to help get down the aisle, I got to enjoy the wedding as the  "sister-of-the-groom with a camera"!  I can't wait to see Florin Design Photography's photos!  He did an awesome job!

The bride was stunning and the first look was awesome.  It was if it was just the 2 of them and there were no cameras clicking away.  I love how they are so in love with each other. 

Rumor has it the groom gave the bride these socks for Christmas so she wouldn't get cold feet.  She didn't!  

Channeling Zoolander!

The sunlight after the ceremony was absolutely stunning.
