This just might be the mother of all blog posts. I’ve been working on it for days and Leah finally had to make me STOP adding images! I could seriously blog 100 images from Delisa & Louis’s amazing day. Everything about it was pure perfection. It was relaxed, beautiful and so very full of love…I can’t start this post without giving the back-story on how Delisa found me. She’s one of my Eden girls. Let me explain….I am lucky enough to have a few different groups of brides who I have photographed as bridesmaids in quite a few of my weddings, and LOVE getting the calls when they become engaged themselves! My “Eden girls” are one of these groups. It all started with Katie & Seth ( whose wedding was featured in Weddings Unveiled Spring 2007 issue!), then there was Lisa & Cole last August ( Lisa is Delisa’s lovely matron of honor) and now I am thrilled to be featuring Delisa & Louis. This group means a lot to me both personally and professionally. They are the type of clients everyone wants. They’re warm, kind and just plain fun to be around. Delisa’s parents, Kathy & Bill are at the top of that list. The first time I met Kathy, she inspired me beyond words. I had no idea both she and Bill had been battling cancer & when I heard her story it really hit home with me. As some of you readers know, my brother is a cancer survivor. He has a lot in common with Kathy & Bill in that he didn’t let it bring him down..he just kept on fighting with a positive attitude….. and just married his beautiful bride last weekend! As I watched Kathy look on while Delisa danced with Bill, it made me think of how precious each and every moment of family time truly is. I am grateful I could be there to capture these beautiful moments for this special family…What can I say? I’m a big Eden fan… ;) Enjoy the pics!img_9299s.jpgbouquet-dress.jpgimg_2750.jpgwindow_light.jpgimg_2948s.jpgWhile the ladies were getting dressed, the guys were playing poker… :)img_2932s.jpgpoker.jpgimg_2691.jpgimg_0221s.jpgI adore this father/daughter moment..so sweet…img_0224s.jpgimg_9278.jpggive_away.jpgimg_0316s.jpgkiss.jpgimg_0344.jpgivy_wall.jpgimg_3093.jpgyummy-light.jpgimg_3128.jpgdetails_d.jpgimg_0452.jpgimg_0459.jpgdance.jpgThanks to Leah for this killer wide shot… :)img_9312.jpgI love how Kathy is looking on while Bill dances with Delisa..so sweet!delisa-and-dad.jpgimg_0514.jpgdance-w-mom.jpgimg_0590s.jpgThe gorgeous Lisa, Kate ( whose wedding I will be shooting next October!) & Sarahbeth ( from left to right :)img_0598s.jpgimg_0596s.jpgThis might be my favorite bouquet toss shot of all time…Delisa has the best laugh!img_3207.jpgYou’re not going to believe who caught the bouquet!
