Just a quick personal entry tonight about my girls. One is very serious, athletic, still girly but is organized and VERY into school.  Then there is the other one….. WAY girly, already saying she is going to marry Zach Efron (nice choice by the way….), wears dresses to EVERYTHING!!!  It could be a cold blustery day but she is going to wear a dress and boots.  So I’m sure you can guess which one is which just by these photos.  I love them to pieces, both so different and I can’t wait to enjoy their differences as they grow older.  Love you girls!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And NO, I don’t photoshop her eyes  I get asked that all the time.  They both truly has these amazing blue eyes…..  And I have no idea where these poses come from.  I see she may have a future in entertainment because this little one sings and dances her way through every day of her life so far.  And for my family who knows her, they know I’m being very literal when I say that  :)

This picture I tried to capture what Sarah wanted, which was the sun filled day they were blessed with (it was originally supposed to rain)…. Just a warm, loving moment.

 

Sarah’s shoes…….  The backyard was filled with such great little trinkets to look at.  It was like a little antique treasure trove.

 

I just LOVE this picture of Sarah getting her makeup done.  Isn’t she just lovely…..?  Look at those eyes!!!  Jeff, you did an amazing job.

 

Sarah did all the stationary and invitations herself.  I think you have a calling Sarah!  These are gorgeous!

 

 

I love this picture of Dan’s grandfather.  He is a special guy to the entire family.  So special that during Sarah & Dan’s engagement, they showed me a picture of his grandparents walking down the streets of San Francisco in front of the St. Francis, and we replicated that walk with them in the year 2008.  Super special.

 

Sarah’s very old dog, Rosie.  This was her after the ceremony had ended.  She followed Sarah everywhere.  I would be photographing at one location and 5 minutes later, here Rosie would come.  It took her a while to get places…..  but she never gave up, that’s for sure.  Such a doll.

 

 

These kids were fascinated at the tadpoles and newly morphed frogs from the pond.  This one stayed in his hands just long enough for me to take a quick snap before he jumped out.  :)

 

 

Sarah’s father passed away ten years ago so her mother walked her down the aisle.

 

 

The following picture I couldn’t decide if I liked it in color or black and white so I’m posting it both ways.  Just love the moments right before or after a kiss…..

 

 

 

One of my fav’s… a little stroll together before all the festivities…..

Ok, well after the “fun” photo booth pictures I posted, I couldn’t stop editing and wanted to post some of the real emotion pictures…..  The first one is the one I cried on even when editing it, there was just so much pure emotion in the moment.  The second one is Sarah getting ready in the morning at the salon  Thanks Sarah & Dan for allowing me to be part of your day.  I will never forget it…….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sarah & Dan, you both are amazing people!  Seriously, since I have known you for the past year now, you have shown me and everyone around you how special you are to each other and how much you truly love each other.  I loved that you set aside two hours to just take pictures with each other before the wedding  We all enjoyed it so much, and when I showed the picture to my family of you and Dan seeing each other for the first time and crying in Dan’s arms, I started crying too.  I will be posting some of those next  For now, here are some fun one’s of the night in the photobooth.  Hysterical!  It was a blast.  You are two special people and I hope you enjoy the pictures.  TONS more to come!  Hugs!
