♥Married: Jordan & Rachel!

This beautiful bride and I grew up together. The tight friendship of our parents brought us together as babies, children, through braces and beyond. When Rachel asked me if I would be part of her wedding it was all I could do to hold back my excitement and “casually” respond "of course!" (well maybe she could have heard a little bit of a squeal here and there though our conversation). Photographing a wedding allows you to be a part of all the magic. You get an all access pass to the bride and groom and their families, in a way that even a guest doesn’t have the chance to. For that I will be forever grateful. Reconnecting with this beauty during such a sweet moment in her life is something I will never forget. Not to mention that this was an EPIC event. Set in a historic tennis ranch nestled in the beautiful trees of Carmel valley, Rachel and Jordan’s wedding was full of thoughtful and eclectic details as classy and fun spirited as the couple themselves.

Here are a few of my favorites from that incredibly special weekend:
