So I have been thinking a lot about how to write Karin and David’s blog post. I do not typically write a whole lot about my clients because I often sound cheesy and end up gushing about how much I loved shooting their wedding and engagement session and how rad they are. These are all true things! I constantly fall in love with their stories and lives and have such a great time spending those incredibly important moments with them.

It is no different for Karin and David. I was so impressed by how happily they let me into their lives and wanted me to be apart (as much as I could) so that I knew them and we were all comfortable together. Karin is such a strong and amazing woman who is battling cancer at the moment. She planned her whole wedding while pushing to get through her chemo sessions. That takes a lot of willpower, strength, and patience! She managed to do all this and look stunning at the same time.

Their wedding was such a awesome celebration of their love and joining of families you could see the joy bursting out of them (after you got past all the wedding day stresses of course!). They were able to have their wedding at a gorgeous family home in Somis California that sat on Lemon orchards. Incredible. The wedding was casual and lively and it was so great to see the mix of the traditional wedding events with the spontaneous (like swimming!).

After their wedding David, Karin, and myself got to spend a little more time together for a quick “Bride and Groom” session in the orchards. I was continually amazed by how much love they had for each other and how much it showed even after an extremely long day.

The cake topper got knocked off the cake and the only thing that broke were the heads of the bride and groom! Karin and David laughed it off and said that it was “so them”. See why I love this couple??


















And we ended with dipping out tootsies in the pool after a long day of celebrating!

I had hoped to get this blog post out by this evening but due to being crazy busy and wanting to do Karin and David’s story justice I am going to postpone it until I can get it done right without rushing (more). I am on hour 12 of my work day and I have so much to share! Next week will be full of posts.

As a sign of good faith I give you another preview!
