hello blog…have you missed me? I have been so, so naughty! Its been a long time since I have sat down to show you some love…but that is all about to change. With loads of weddings to info to blog, hopefully, we can begin our new loving relationship…

Whew! ok, so lets get this started! This beautiful wedding was at Casa Monica- and in typical fashion, Casa did not dissappoint! This is ANOTHER rainy wedding {I had a good 5 in a row} but as we have all learned- if you got a bride and you got a groom, then everything else is just icing on the proverbial cake! This sweet couple first met with me to do the “hand” shot that you will see later in the pics. Susan explained that she had an image of her dads hands before he passed away that she had everyone sign at the funeral- which I loved- and did something similar with marks father last week. When these two showed up at my studio with a busy two year old in tow- they had nothing but smiles. You could see how happy they were just being together. I saw this often {hmm, wonder if I am making an important point here} but the more you enjoy each other, the more amazing your photos will be! Having a big black square in front of your fave is awkward for most people, but this is once in a lifetime, so smile, hang on, and enjoy the ride- I promise it will make your day that much more memorable!

Susan and Joel, were so amazingly sweet, and smiled through it all, the rain, the crazy moments, and enjoyed their day. With family surrounding them, and their children supporting them, these two took their vows.  They even snuck in seeing each other before the big moment- which is my favorite part of the day! Stacy and I had a blast photographing this one, you can just see Joel’s happiness when he catches a glimpse of his brishing bride- I love it! It is by far the most romantic and touching moment of any wedding day!

Susan and Joel- I adore you both- your happiness and love is awe inspiring! Remember this happiness as you travel down this wonderful, but sometimes bumpy marriage road! Thank you for allowing Pure Sugar Studios to be a part of your love story!
