Chico Wedding Photographer: Max and Kelsey

Dear Max and Kelsey, Every time I sit down to write these posts I get overwhelmed because there is so much to say. First, we just want to say thank you. Thank you for being you. Thank you for having so much class and treating people with amazing love. Thank you for giving us the chance to see your story unfold.

We want you to know that you have style. And we loved capturing that. You are beautiful people and we are so glad you married one another. Your wedding day was truly a reflection of your sweet spirits and joy for life. We are blessed to know you.

There are so many more photos than this, but hardly enough time or space to showcase all of them. So here is a start to reliving your wedding day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us into your lives.

Much Love, K and K

And if you missed the first part of the day, here is a link to that.

Ok -- can two people be more excited to be together?

You two stop it... looking so good!

Loved these girls. They are all so beautiful! Once again, Melinda with M Creations did an amazing job with the bouquets and you will see her work in the centerpieces as well.

The wedding ceremony was held at Bidwell Presbyterian in downtown Chico.

We then moved to the Chico Event Center for an incredible reception.

We took a few more photos right before their entrance into the reception

Let's just say there were some entertaining toasts given in an honor of these two.

Kelsey, you are the best!

Platinum Productions kept this dance party moving. Such a blast!

Cheers to an amazing wedding! We always get kind of sad to see it all end, but we know that the best is yet to come. Marriage is amazing!

Chico Wedding Photographer: As a Bride Prepares...

There is so much photo journalism to being a wedding photographer. One of my favorite parts of the day is the time spent with a bride as she is getting ready to see her groom. Sometimes the moments are quiet; thoughtful, and other times there is so much excitement it can harldy be contained. And yet there is a story to be told. Today, I wanted to showcase Kelsey and the time we spent with her as she prepared. There were so many details and incredible beauty. We are honored to have captured her. Kelsey prepared to see her groom at the Hotel Diamond in downtown Chico. I highly recommend their suites for getting ready. Their rooms provide an incredible backdrop for these moments.

Enjoy this glimpse into the beginning of Max and Kelsey's wedding day. We can't wait to show you their entire wedding on the blog within the next couple days.

These girls were among the sweetest bridesmaids and friends to Kelsey on her big day. I love Lauren's expression here. So sweet.

Kelsey, you are beautiful. Truly.

And once again, Melinda, with M Creations, provided amazing work to compliment this beautiful bride.

More to come so soon!
