dana & joe

sometimes i really do pinch myself. is this really my job? photographing sweet couples who are truly in love, look fabulous, know how to party hard and appreciate me?!? i am one lucky girl.

dana and joe were blessed with a warm march wedding day after 9 years of dating... and they totally deserved it!


when i first arrived dana was a bit nervous... here she takes a deep breath...

a deep breath makes a difference...

i always miss out on what is so funny...

super fun steve madden shoes!


love this!
dana's mom cries as dana gets in her dress. my mom would totally do the same thing, i think that is why i love this photo so much. i love to see the 'mom cry' because it comes from a deep love...


sometimes you prepare the details for months and months, but then forget the deodorant...

this goes into the 'top walking down the aisle expressions' file...




dana wanted a few shots with her sister, but out of all of them, this totally candid moment was my favorite one...

i like when my couples put their church right outside a big window for me...







shortly before these pictures... we were walking down the street and dana turned and looked at joe and said, 'so this is what my husband looks like...' --love it!

evening sun and wind make for awesome pics!

the wind was on my side...


warm sun and perfect wind....



and the party begins...


this is just too cute...


joe's dad is strong...

surprise performance of beyonce's 'single ladies' song. any groom that will participate with this much enthusiasm to this song is awesome in my book! this was a total crowd pleaser!

there is a lot going on in this image... take a second to look at all the action!

jersey fist pump...



and i have to end with one of my favorite shots. dana looks adorable with cake on her nose puckering up for joe who is busy eating cake. i guess since her eyes were closed she has no idea this was happening.. surprise dana!
