wedding | emily & jason: part I

words cannot fully express how happy i was to document emily & jason's special day.  these two are so in love and just couldn't wait to be married.  it was a little slice of heaven - being their wedding photographer.  and i cannot count how many times i teared up during their ceremony.  (yes, that's right.  there's a good reason why i use auto-focus!  don't want to miss anything -- even through tears!).  :D  the whole day...emily was just so calm.  and peaceful.  nothing was going to faze her.  even the rain showers that came that saturday morning.

while i hung out mostly with the girls, my 2nd-shooter rachel hung out with the guys.  it was our 1st time shooting together!  (thank you, rach!  hope to do it again soon!!).

emily & jason...thank you, thank you, thank you for entrusting such a dear & precious memory to me.  i hope you LOVE every single frame.  xo.

LOL.  classic.  guys are always puzzled by these things.  ;D
