Many of you know that I got to go to Los Angeles a couple weeks ago to shoot a wedding. What you don't know is how awesome of a time I had with Abby & Scott! I started out my day with the girls doing their hair & makeup in their hotel - Abby's mom was so funny and all of her friends (& sister!) were big fun. We headed over to the Green River Golf Course where Abby got her dress on in the skinniest little room I've seen, but it had great mirrors which offered some cool reflections...
Scott arrived at the venue just in time for their sweet reveal on the balcony - what a great guy - I met him for the first time on this day, but immediately got a great sense of why Abby loves him. The couple & I then got to hang out on the golf course for some portraits before getting all of the family formals taken. Scott's dad has the coolest classic Fiat that he brought to drive Abby & her father (who was also their officiant by the way) down to the gazebo for the ceremony - it was GREAT!
The new couple & I then hopped on a golf cart while the cocktail hour got underway - the course has a lake and some really gorgeous trees...and we had such a gorgeous day. We then headed back to the ballroom for tender toasts, sweet slow dances, a yummy buffet, an even yummier cake and then some serious dancing moves (see me doing the cha cha slide - eek!) It was a really beautiful day for an incredibly beautiful couple - I hope your honeymoon was super Abby & Scott, thanks again for making me a part of your day...

Nice work Jenny! The golfing photos are cute! Like all the flared shots. The one where they're on the dance floor "getting low" cracks me up.
(06.04.09 @ 01:52 PM)Jenny ever since we've met to the day of the wedding you've been so great and easy to work with! Not only are you an amazing artist, you are so fun to be around and make it easy for everyone to be themselves in front of the camera :) These photos are BEAUTIFUL!!!!! You captured all of the joy, excitement and emotion in everyone! We'll share these photos with friends and family for years to come! Thank you thank you thank you!
(06.04.09 @ 06:11 PM)ok. so. i already know that you're completely awesome. but i think i've taken for granted just how awesome of a photographer you are!
when i'm doing a wedding with you, i don't always have a fresh perspective when i see the end photos on your blog... i don't know if that makes any sense at all!
but i found myself saying 'wow!' so many times in this blog post! the flare, the fiat, and the fun that you captured! people tell you all the time what a great job you do at capturing the emotion within the moment, and it's so true!
maybe that doesn't all make sense, but basically it boils down to 'YOU ROCK'!!!
(06.04.09 @ 08:23 PM)Ok, I love the blurry car and the palm tree shots. Beautiful.
(06.04.09 @ 10:55 PM)i love the butt pinch shot! :)
(06.05.09 @ 01:12 PM)Once again, your photos are so good I can almost smell the flowers, hear the music, feel the green grass between my toes! You're the BEST! They're gonna love these!
(06.05.09 @ 04:05 PM)They're such a beautiful couple and you captured so many great moments throughout the day! The story just unfolds as I scroll through the pictures.
(06.06.09 @ 10:30 AM)the bride is simply stunning! i felt like i was looking at a wedding magazine with models! but their love is very real and sweet. they are an adorable couple and you did a wonderful job capturing that!
