it’s not very often that i get to be a second shooter. it’s a pity because i quite enjoy it. there is something so freeing about being the side-kick. it provides me the opportunity to tell a story from a different angle and to focus on the details and the moments in the in-between. but just recently, my friend amy who’s an associate photographer for mary jane photography asked me to shoot with her at emily + shyne’s wedding at the four seasons biltmore in santa barbara. this was my first time shooting at the biltmore and shooting with amy. i had a blast. the couple was incredibly sweet and their families and friends equally delightful. so i thought i would share a few favorites from the special day…

the beautiful bride, emily.

i love shooting through things, especially glass.

the flowers and details were gorgeous. wow.

the ladies and the beautiful bride. what a fun and sweet group of women. we laughed a lot.

the gents. while amy escorted the bride into hiding, i got a chance to hang out with shyne for a bit and grabbed a few fun shots of him.

the ceremony was heartfelt, emotional and intimate and in a beautiful location to boot.

the newlyweds…

a few details from the reception.

thank you amy for inviting me to shoot with you. i can’t wait till next time. emily & shyne, blessings on your new life together.
