Hillary & Shawn - married

Hillary & Shawn Luesing married March 27, 2010, on a lovely sunny, warm spring afternoon. Hillary contacted me 3 months prior to the wedding day asking for "day of" coordination and I happily was able to assist her pull the last pieces together and be there on wedding day to oversee, coordinate, facilitate and send my happy bride down the aisle! The married table-side at the Placer Event Center in Rocklin, California. Working with her florist Mary, (a friend and extremely talented floral designer), the color palette of vibrant blue, hot pink and limely green was perfectly executed.

Apparently Hillary's mom makes a mean Ginger Snap cookie, and each guest was lucky enough to go home with a bag of cookies, which included the coveted recipe. Snappy!
The cake was beautiful and was created by another very talented acquaintance.

This was my first opportunity to work with Gary Buth of G-Photo Design. He was terrific! Fast, efficient, very pleasant, easy-going, creative and ever-so-clever... isn't this picture cute?

Thank you Hillary and Shawn. It was a beautiful day. I wish you well.

Hillary & Shawn's E-session

Such a happy couple and one that is knocking on the door of their wedding day... which will be held in one more week, March 27th. I strongly encourage my couples to schedule their engagement photo session sometime prior to the wedding so that they develop a relationship with their photographer and he/she can get a sense of how a couple pose or how comfortable they are in front of the camera. With the winter weather being problematic, Hillary and Shawn finally had their engagement session a couple of weeks ago.

I love this photo of my couple out in a field; great lighting.

It will be a pleasure to work, for the first time, with Gary Buth of G-Photo Design.

The anticipation is building Hillary & Shawn!
