One of the biggest decisions you’ll be making for your wedding day is whether or not to have a first look. A first look is when the wedding couple plans to have a private moment where they will see each other before the wedding. Some couples wish this to be private, others would like it […]

I thought I’d start July by sharing Kirsten and Nick’s beautiful December Disneyland wedding photos. Tiffany was so excited about the sky, that she texted me photos all morning. The sky did not disappoint, and editing Kirsten and Nick’s wedding photos was a wonderful treat. Thanks again for having us, Kirsten and Nick! Cheers to […]
