Weston + Michelle [Pismo Beach, CA]

Wes & Michelle's wedding made for a super duper awesome ending to 2009's weddings. It's not just anywhere that you can get married in December and take pictures on the beach. And it's not with just anyone that can pull off legit thiz-faces like this crew.

A Taste of Elegance Catering

Let me just say that editing these pictures when I haven't eaten since breakfast yesterday was NOT the best idea I've ever had.

Anyways, I met Annie Hobbs at a wedding I was shooting and she was catering. And I was immediately blown away by the art and passion she has for not only preparing food, but presenting it. She is a true culinary artist, if I have ever seen one.

Danielle Randleman [Publicity. Hair&Makeup]

Danielle Randleman is two things: an incredible hair & makeup artist and a lovely friend. We had been planning to do this shoot for a while now, and we FINALLY got around to it. And it was a BLAST. Danielle is the other blonde in the pictures, and the brunette is my cousin and best friend, Kelsey. Danielle colored and styled both Kelsey and my hair, as well as the fun makeup on our perdy faces.

Sooooo, if you're looking for a hair and makeup artist for your wedding, look her up...!

Ryan + Martha [Chardon, OH]

It's been almost 3 years since I first met Martha in musty common room at the YWAM base in Closkelt, Northern Ireland. She brought her prospective "boyfriend" to my wedding in the Summer of last year... and he immediately fell right into place with our group of misfits. It wasn't long before they were engaged... and planning their wedding on my 21st birthday.

The list of things that made this one of the best weddings ever is neverending... but I'll try to give you just a little glimpse of the glory:

* i got to be an honorary bridesmaid / photographer.

* Chucks

* it WASN'T raining, despite the weather report

* dance party most definitely made top 3

* 21st birthay on the 21st with lots of my favorite people

* etcetera, etcetera, etcetera....
