ALLIE + AARON | BOX R RANCH WEDDING

When you shoot weddings, you come to appreciate the ringers on the reception floor. You know, the die-hards, the dependably fun wedding attendees who can always be counted on to deliver the party. A dead dance floor does not photograph well. This is where I first came to develop my gratefulness for Allie. Year after year, this girl came to my weddings and brought her dance moves with her. I imagine everyone who knows her is well acquainted with the smiles and the laughter. I can only hope her huge personality comes through in the images.

Aaron and Allie are perfect together. They compliment each other in the areas they are not similar. They laugh at each other’s jokes. The engagement session was perfect. We had a great break in the weather, and even got kicked out of a church-owned park (we just win like that). Their wedding day was just as perfect. Gorgeous venue, amazing weather, hilarious and moving ceremony, great party. I can’t thank them enough for having me… and I think I should just stop typing and let you smile along with Allie.

DISCLAIMER: with no apologies, I included both of my kids in this post. That’s just the way it is. You know there’s a good connection with the couple when your wife and kids get invited to spend the weekend at the resort.
