Ruthie + Justin = Married!

You may remember this couples engagement session with me in Lake Tahoe. It was so much fun! So it was good to see them both again on such a fabulous day in their lives. Ruthie did such a fantastic job, her hair was amazing, the guys suits were fab, and the bouquet was truly unique. I hope you enjoy the photos and slideshow!

those three photos with the groom holding the flowers are sooooo cute! i love the purple details and the flowers are gorgeous. beautiful bride, cute couple!

Rosangel + Mike = Married!

These two were married in the same chapel I graduated in… well, at least part of the day was spent there. I guess technically I graduated outside on the fields.:P

In any case, this location was special and close to my heart. I believe that in the end life circles round, and it really is a small world. There is so much I see on the day a couple get’s married, but in reality, there are so many things that I will never know about them. The little quirks, the little nuances, and that’s what makes capturing one of their biggest moments such an interesting challenge. I am continuously asking, who are you?

If I had to guess I would say Rosangel is the ship on Mikes sea. And although that makes sense to me, I think I’m not going to elaborate, but instead let you fill in the blanks. Enjoy.

Isn’t Rosangel’s niece just the cutest?

A friend sang their first dance song for them, and it really was beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful!!! You are stunning, Rosangel! Terra, you’re amazing!

Abri - November 19, 2009 - 12:07 PM

Cousin! You look stunning, we were really looking forward to being there but we were wishing you the best in spirit. Terra, you’re doing a great job about capturing the many chapters in our families lives!!!

Amy + Bret = Married!

You may remember these two from their engagement session.

Well, they’ve gone and done it! I sometimes wonder if the walk to the altar feels a bit like this:

What do you think? Ha.

Amy and Bret were married at a beautiful location under the sun and surrounded by hills. There are so very many images that I won’t take you time with too much text other than to say this, barns, sparker exits, and beautiful cadillacs sure do make a pretty mix. Enjoy!
