Chrissy and Jason: the wedding

Chrissy and Jason: the wedding

Chrissy and Jason were referred to me by another fabulous couple whose wedding I shot last year, Stacey and Chris. I was so excited after meeting with them because I knew we were going work so well together. As they sat and started to describe the type of day and ceremony that they wanted, I felt myself getting more and more excited about the possibility of working with them. When I got the call saying they wanted to book me, I did a happy dance :) Needless to say, it all lived up to my expectations and the day couldn't have gone any better. What a wonderful couple who I enjoyed working with every step of the way - onto the pictures and the slideshow!


The programs were a beautiful blend of greens and browns ...

That's the first time I saw an incredible arrangement of chairs in a church. I love the suit of Jason it reminds me of my cousin's wedding. The forever 5.9.09 shirt and box is just amazing, who just made that?
