Joyous Occasions

We often get asked by our brides what is our number one advice to make their wedding day wonderful. While we could answer “Hire us!” or “Invest in a good makeup artist” etc. My advice most often than not is to “relax and enjoy.” Simple right? So often brides and grooms spend so much of their time investing into the details of the day or what goes wrong (something always goes wrong)that sometimes you forget to just sit back and enjoy. The day goes by so fast that you will want to soak up every single minute of it and commit it to memory so when you look back, you’ll remember and say to yourself “my wedding day was full of joy and happiness and absolutely imperfectly, perfect”

Speaking of joy and happiness, last Saturday Josh and I got to witness exactly that at Sam and Brandon’s wedding. We were incredibly blessed to of been part of something very special, and because I know Sam is probably “DYING” for a sneak peek, I couldn’t resist!

My two faves of the day (both kissing shots because I’m a sucker for romance):

Brandon & Sam: Engaged

A fresh new start. That’s what 2010 represents to Josh and I this year. We are so happy that our first shoot of the year started with Brandon and Samantha. They are exactly the kind of couple that we fall in love with. Modern, romantic, and yes, fresh. We had a blast hanging out with them having a couple of drinks discussing their very quickly approaching wedding in April, and our love of all things technology (Fry’s gift registery? Why not?). Thank you guys for being such wonderful clients and trudging through bird poop with us!

We told Brandon and Sam that if they felt any posing inspiration to just go for it, and then they busted out this move:

We ended the night in the virtual dark although you really can’t tell from this picture:

Thanks again you two, and we hope you enjoy the Asti!
