There are moments when I photograph something so special it’s hard to put into words. This last month, I had the honor of photographing Jennifer and Drew’s wedding at Hidden Hollow. It was a gorgeous day filled with love, laughter, and LOTS of sparkle. But there was something else…something felt in the way he gazed at her when he vowed to love her to the end of his days. The way her dad held her arm as he walked her tenderly down the aisle. The way the guests cheered and toasted for the newlyweds throughout the night.  
 
You see, it wasn’t but a few months prior to their wedding Drew and Jennifer were in a head on car collision that nearly took their lives. Life is such a sweet and precious gift. And what better celebration of love and life than a wedding!!! And so, on an overcast Friday afternoon, nestled in orange groves and surrounded by their family and friends, Drew and Jennifer became husband and wife.  
 
Drew and Jen, thank you for entrusting me with your wedding day! I am so grateful for you two and hope you are soaking in the beautiful goodness of being Mr. and Mrs.! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! xx

Jen incorporated her love of all things Disney throughout the day, even in the bouquet! Can you spot the hidden Mickey?

Bride shoes on point!

Because of Jen’s injuries to her foot in their car accident, she wasn’t able to wear the heels she originally intended on, but seriously, how amazing are these?!?

Jen had custom-made hangers and robes for all her bridesmaids and flower girls!!!

Of course the bride needed her Minnie slippers while she was getting ready!

Cheers!

How cute are these flower girls in their getting ready dresses?!?

Such a gorgeous bride!

Love!

When a past bride is the maid of honor in the wedding!!!! She basically read my mind all day and was always one step ahead helping me out…even bringing me a chocolate truffle at the reception! Love ya Chelsie!

Rose gold bridesmaids dresses…um, yes please!!!

Love this shot, taken by my Allan who was my second shooter for the day!

Layers of lace…

Just around the corner, the guys were getting ready too!

One of my favorites!

And the sweetest first look!

Even with the amazing view, these two only had eyes for each other!

The bridal party!

Love!

Sealed with a kiss!!!

One of my favorites from the day!

As the newlyweds took in the sunset, their guests enjoyed cocktail hour over across the way…

How gorgeous is this reception?!?

Perfection!

The night was filled with delicious food, toasting and lots of laughter!

And an epic father-daughter dance that started slow and turned into an amazing-choreographed number!

I’ll end with this sweet one of Drew + Jennifer sharing their first dance…beginning their Happily Ever After as husband and wife!
