Almost a year ago I asked my friends Andrew and Amy if they would be models for me so I can shoot my first engagement session to see if I would like shooting portraits. They generously obliged, and we had a really fun time. Then they dropped the bomb on me and asked if I would like to be their wedding photographer. I said NO almost immediately because the thought of having that responsibility on their most important day was quite frightening, and I wasn’t even considering wedding photography at the time. However, after a couple weeks of thinking about it I agreed to take on the challenge. I assisted in a few weddings with some mega talents like Lin & Jirsa and Marielle Hayes, so I had some good teachers along the way. A special thanks to my friend Hanh who helped capture some of the details and candid moments.

Andrew and Amy are the most beautiful and genuine couple. Their wedding day was full of laughter, love, great stories, and happiness. I’ve known Andrew for several years now, and I knew alongside any great man there had to be a great woman. Sure enough, Amy is just that and then some. Their story is really cute: Andrew had been in love with Amy since high school, but she didn’t realize she loved him more than a friend until just a few years ago. So… Andrew waited and waited, and finally they started dating and realized early on that a future together was the answer to a happy ending. Andrew and Amy, congratulations on your marriage! I’m so lucky to be more than just your wedding photographer, and it was an honor capturing your special day. xoxo
