Family wedding

Well it was my cousin-in-law's (I guess that's what she'd be) wedding last weekend and they went with another photographer, who is extremely talented (www.tarasieling.com) - who also shot my wedding.  They said they didn't pick me because they wanted me to enjoy myself for once instead of being behind the camera.  But that's what I enjoy doing so I had to sneak in a few shots anyways!

I sat through the ceremony but then had to go grab my camera

 

You know it's love when you don't have to tell them what to do ;o)

 

 The reception was awesome.  They went with the winter theme.

 

 

 

And the first dance got everyone a little choked up.

 

I loved the lighting - it was like the rising sun over them - I had to include it some how.

 

 

 

And don't forget dad trying not to cry - that got everyone going...

 

The groom covered in dollar dance decor...

 

 

 

 Such a fun couple - I actually wish I were "working" that night!

Happy Christmas

Happy Christmas everyone!  I hope Santa treats you well!

This is the closet thing I have to a winter wonderland...

Eric and Shellie's wedding!

This wedding was so fun with these two.  They are so easy going, always smiling and laughing.  It's couples like this that make my job so easy!

Something borrowed...something blue...

 The Sepulveda Home is full of antiques...

Shellie was rocking out while getting ready.

Don't forget the vino!

If you want to be entertained just hang around Eric...

And miraculously everyone was still standing at the ceremony

 

Love candid moments like these.

 

 

 Shellie had to take a peak at Eric before the ceremony...

 

This little guy was a crack up.  Always hamming it up...especially on the dance floor!

This is a little something I like to call the money shot lol.  I love Eric's reaction at seeing Shellie for the first time.

A woman that knows what she wants ;o)

 

 

 

 

 

I'm telling you, they were so much fun I should have paid them!

The Sepulveda Home is one of the few places that you can have a fabulous backyard wedding.

 

 

At the end of the first dance Eric pulled out a rose and gave it to her.

 

 

 

Congratulations!
