Do you think a photographer can predict a happy marriage? I do.

You can feel the electricity in the air when Codye and Matt are together– she makes him laugh, he treat her with perfect sweetness. They consented to let me take their wedding photos and it’s a privilege I don’t take lightly. A wedding is a one-time event and I want to capture every sliver of magic.

I think we’ve made a good start…

    michelle,
    try consignment stores, pier one and tj max. I have had the best luck at those places (I often pay more than I am willing to admit though).
