Beth and Matt’s wedding this past Saturday was so much fun! I met Beth and Matt this past April for their engagement session at the Desert Botanical Gardens and ever since then I couldn’t wait for their wedding. Let’s start with some details: Beth’s friend who did all of the girl’s make-up was absolutely amazing! All the girls looked flawless and they were all on time :). She’s starting her own business so I will be adding her information for all of you soon. I was truly impressed with her work. A really fun surprise about this wedding was one of Beth’s bridesmaids, Amy. Amy’s wedding was the first wedding I ever photographed with Jennifer Bowen before I even started to blog. It was her wedding that pushed me to want to be a full-time wedding photographer. Before this, I had only photographed weddings for family and friends. Needless to say, it was really special for me to see her and Jeremy again. And now for a really fun twist of fate, I had already photographed Beth since she was one of Amy’s bridesmaids! Here’s a photo I took of Amy and her girls (including Beth). Isn’t this awesome?! Beth’s grandmother was so much fun and I loved her camera! Beth had some pretty incredible girls supporting her throughout the day. She’s a very lucky girl to have so many wonderful girlfriends. I love the look on Beth’s mom’s face as she see’s her daughter in her wedding dress: The beautiful bride: Their first look was so touching: A few portraits before the ceremony: I really love this one: Beth’s dad walked her down the aisle: Matt looking at his bride: I really loved the ceremony site at the Double Tree Paradise Valley. It was beautiful and had some nice even light throughout the whole ceremony, allowing for some beautiful photos. All of Beth’s bridesmaid’s got to pick their own black heels: I think every couple should take a few minutes during their ceremony to look at all of their guests who are there to support them and take it all in. Such a special moment. Beth’s grandmother again. I just adored her :) Married!! Fun bridal party A few more details: Their reception was quite the party: Beth and Matt, have a blast in Hawaii! Thank you for the wonderful day and for being so awesome!
