Wedding: Maria + Blake

Monday, June 27, 2011 Posted in Weddings

Earlier this month we were able to capture a very special wedding for my beautiful cousin, Maria and her fiance, Blake! The entire day was perfect and God blessed us with AMAZING weather for all of the outdoor pictures – yeah! Maria + Blake met up for their “first look” at his parent’s beautiful lake-front property and we spent the next couple of hours taking pictures of the couple, the bridal party, and the family. I just love Maria’s color scheme- the bridesmaid’s hot pink dresses and the groomsmen’s pink ties added such a fun pop of color!

The beautiful ceremony was held at King’s Chapel in Wasilla and then everyone headed over to the fun reception complete with a live band, antique photobooth, and AMAZING food!

VENDORS:
Ceremony - King’s Chapel
Reception – Mat-Su Career and Tech High School
Florist & Cake Designer – Kellie Hotchkiss
Caterer – Kristie Fray
Makeup Artist – Melanie Camargo, Alaska Makeup Team
Hair Stylist – Beehive Beauty Shop, Jessica Steele, Mariah Hopper, Roxanne Wintz

Here are a few of our favorites from the day …

Engaged: Katelyn + Josh

Friday, June 3, 2011 Posted in Engagements

We met up with this awesome couple last week at the gorgeous Kincaid Park! The weather was amazing and we had so much fun wandering around the park discovering all of the perfect picture locations. We ended the photo shoot with their Harley & Ducati in the woods … it doesn’t get much better than that! Katelyn + Josh will be tying the knot on July 30th in Wasilla and we are so excited for their big day!
