Chico California Wedding Photographer: Chris and Katie

Seven years ago, when Kenny and I got engaged, we knew exactly who we would ask to help us with premarital counseling: Marty and Linda T are some of the kindest, wisest people that we know. They have a love for helping young people mature in their relationships and we were so blessed to learn from them. So then, we were absolutely honored to be asked to shoot the wedding of one of their sons. When Chris and Katie emailed me this past fall, I couldn't believe it. We were so excited!

Katie and Chris are so sweet and they adore one another. They are high school sweethearts, married one month after college graduation. And very soon, the newlyweds will head overseas to teach for the next two years. Their story is beautiful and so was their wedding.

Thank you so much Chris and Katie and your amazing families! We were blessed to see your day unfold and hear your stories. I know that these photos are only the beginning. So cheers to you and all that is to come!

Katie, you are gorgeous!

The first look.... So sweet!
