After revisiting the 10,000+ images delivered to wedding clients in 2015, I find it nearly impossible to pick favorites (or at least a reasonable number for a retrospective). Here I’m presenting a look at some of the hugs, kisses, laughs, gasps, tears, moments, details and scenes that have stuck with me from my 2015 wedding season. Thank you to my couples for letting me into your lives, being your authentic selves in front of my lens, taking me to so many new places, and trusting me to document these wonderful days for you and your families.
