Suzie and Joel - Fresno Wedding

Back in October (yes, I am that far behind in my blogging) I got to shoot Joel and Suzie's Wedding in Fresno. I followed the couple throughout the day, from the morning preparations to the evening goodbyes. The day began with my taking pictures of the bride and groom getting ready. The groom was done first, so while the girls were finishing up, we went outside to take some pictures. Then everyone was whisked back inside (so that Joel wouldn't see Suzie before the big moment) and I took pictures with the bride and brides maids.

Then it was time for the actual wedding, which went very smoothly. In my opinion, it was the absolute perfect length. Not too short, not too long; just enough time to be very meaningful. I loved it! I had staked out my "spot" ahead of time, so all that was left was for me to capture all of the important moments. The lighting is absolutely beautiful in this church, so my job was made pretty easy for me

And then it was time for the reception. There was delicious food, toasts and dancing.

The cake!

 And then finally we had some moments to take pictures of the bride and groom together.

And then the day was over! These are of course just snippets of the whole day. I took so many pictures and had an absolute blast catching all of the moments.
