Jonathan and GiselMarried May 26, 2013 Grass Valley, California "Love is patient, Love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." Jonathan and Gisel are authentic, kind and gentle spirited. It was an absolute honor to be a part of their wedding day.
They were married in the church where Jonathan works as a pastor.
I remember their day so well. It was the Sunday of Labor Day and I was actually having a really rough morning. I remember being in tears on the way to their wedding, as I was overwhelmed with some things in our life. And so we stopped. We pulled off the side of the road and we prayed. Kenny gave me a pep talk and together we promised to give this wedding our best. And this wedding blew me away. The people were some of the kindest we have ever met. The families so sweet. Alex and Alicia could not stop smiling -- they are smitten and we absolutely LOVED working with them. You can just tell the spirit of the day by the people. These people knew how to have fun and they embraced us with open arms. Just amazing!
I am so grateful for this wedding day. It is days like this, that make me realize how blessed we are to do something we love together. And just like this wedding, we are inspired by our clients, people like Alex and Alicia.
So thank you both. Thank you for choosing us to photograph your wedding. We had a blast -- loved every moment and think the two of you are going to make an incredible team for life.
Much Love and Gratitude, K and K

Love working with Ashley, from the Powder Room. She is the best!
The first look. Don't you just love how excited Alex is?
I am telling you, they were just Smitten...
Alex and Alicia met in Chico, but live in Monterey -- so they wanted the historic Bidwell Mansion as a backdrop for some of their photos.
Such a sweet Bridal Party...
I am a big fan of this shot :)
The wedding ceremony was held on the lawn outside the Palms
Alicia's parents. Enough said.
Married :)
We took some time to photograph a few more portraits before the party started.
The details at the reception were ubnderstated, and just pretty.
Once again, Upper Crust, did a wonderful job with the cake.
This might be one of my favorite "cake-cutting" of all time :)
Love when we are in just the right spot for a dance move like this :)
All day long, Ben would hug Lauren just like this... And when I see these kind of moments, I know for sure, that words aren't always need to say I love you.
