Nicole and Roger

Nicole and Roger choose to have a small, intimate ceremony on a beach in Cayucos, Ca.  I was sweating it because rain was predicted for that Sunday in May – but Nicole was certain it wouldn’t – and her prediction held true! The weather definitely produced a spectacular sky which helped give an epic quality to the photos. The reception was held at Robin’s in Cambria in a covered patio with an amazing garden area. Here are just a few of many photos taken that day.

Keith and Annike vows in Pismo

I only spent about 4 hours with Annike, Keith and their family and friends – but I left feeling like one of the group. The bride and groom are both full of life, full of love and full of fun – and they have a way of making everyone feel like they’re along for the ride! And I got to see Aaron and Cristin there, whose wedding I had shot almost two years ago – now with a darling little girl added to their family.

One of Annike’s best friends did her hair and make-up – they are two peas in a pod!

It’s a family affair – Annike’s cousin was their officiant.

BFFs!

The beautiful bride!

This couple not only love each other – they like each other.  They’ve known each other since kindergarten – went their separate ways after school – and then met each other again two years ago – Love at first sight, the second time around!

Next stop – the reception . . .
Refreshing make-up before the grand entrance – Keith is “helping”.

Big boys don’t cry — Not.  Keith is a big, tough looking guy with a soft heart.

Annike and her mother – mother daughter dance. Annike’s mom is very ill, and this dance was Very special for both of them.

Yes – I predict a long, happy, loving life together for Keith, Annike, and their kids.
