It was nice to get back into the flow after a great workshop in Seattle. On Saturday, we joined Lindsey and Sam for their wedding at First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood. If you remember their engagement session, Lindsey and Sam are just too easy to shoot! They have awesome smiles and expressions and it made it just a joy for us to cover them on their wedding. Add to that, their awesome families who were so welcoming and friendly…it made for a fantastic day. Lindsey’s dress was actually her mom’s wedding dress that they altered here and there for an super look! So cool! Here are some highlights from an awesome day:

I love this shot! That light right at the top of these stairs was just amazing.

Really nice moment together right after they met for the first time. I’m in the chapel and they are right outside the back door.

Lindsey looking quite spectacular!

Sam has got this look down pat! He looked awesome.

Some combo bench and hugging action.

Loved that door on the back side of the church. The grounds of the church had awesome looking buildings and scenes. Definitely my style!

More of those cool buildings in the back there.

Right in front of the chapel entrance.

A Quiet moment right before the ceremony.

Inside the beautiful chapel.

Kiss me please!

So happy. First dance.

There were a bunch of awesome kiddies running around. Here is little Lucas. (That’s a cool name!)

More little cuties.

On the way out…Hope you guys are having a blast in Mexico!

Anyone can take a good photo, but you did an excellent job of using the environment to set the mood of the moment!
