UKIAH WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER : ST MARYS CHURCH : RED BARN RANCH

One of my favorite things about being Married to someone who knows just about everyone? When some of those 'everyones' are getting Married & know exactly who they trust with their day! So many people have known Niels for years - they know what kind of person he is...his work ethic...and, they feel comfortable having him right there by their side. 

I, myself, have known + grown up with my Husband since I was 14 yrs old...our lives & morals were formed together - it's something I cherish immensely. 

So, when his Clients become our Clients? I feel like we're with Family.

Today, I met Ana at her Family home...where she felt most comfortable with a little privacy...so, I stepped outside to shoot a few details while she dressed.

 Trying to talk the little Miss into some photos while we wait...

 Awww....

 There it is!

The Mariachi was amazing...!!

 Your chariot awaits, my dear...

There she is! BREATHTAKING!!
 The blessing is always such a tender moment...the final moments before her baby becomes a Wife. ...awww, Momma...

 Uncle (who means the World) steps in...

 Arriving at the Church...

 I think she's ready!

 We are gathered here today...

It's official!

 Heading to the Reception, we stopped along the way for some photos with just the Newlyweds!

Gorgeous.

Next stop!? The AMAZING Reception - all set up + ready to go at the beautiful Red Barn Ranch! 

 I don't think I've ever seen a Tent look like this!

 ...and, this Cake!? Unreal!!!

 ...here they come!

 TIME TO GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!!

(a little smoke fills the room)

The entire Crew...friends...family...was having SO much fun!!

 Time to bring the Couple out on the dance floor...

 We all know this one...!

 uh-oh...this is happening!

 Come on...music's back on!

 Gerry...Ana...you two are sooo adorably sweet together. The looks you shared when it was just the two of you together spoke volumes. The laughter...the smiles...so touching. I hope Life brings you all of the Love + Joy that you so much deserve. THANK YOU so much for sharing your day with us & for making the Larsen's feel like Family - it was a true honor! xo
