Just bliss. | Edmonds Wedding Photographer

Saturday I had the pleasure of photographing a celebration of some ELL-OH-VEE-EE, love! Besides the normal photography responsibilities, I also had a little extra something on my plate; mentoring a 16 year old aspiring photographer as she got her feet wet in her first wedding as the ‘second shooter’. I won’t lie – it was a lot of work! I had to remember to explain what I was doing as I was doing it while watching the clock and still retaining my creativity!! I spent some of my time sitting back and offering some small assistance where it was needed and took the reigns and mentored by example when the tough spots came along.

The bride of the day is a good friend of mine and she was GORGEOUS! Riley, the groom, has a special place in my son’s heart and was looking quite handsome as well. The highlight of the day for me? Just prior to the BIG moment, after Anh’s make-up had been retouched and the stress of the day was at its peak, her bridesmaids surrounded her, placed hands on her and prayed. Each woman prayed a fervent and heartfelt prayer for Anh and Riley’s ceremony, their future and their future in Christ. Needless to say, Anh’s make-up had to be touched up once again after that special moment.

Enjoy the images!
