What a gorgeous summer it’s been this far. This weather has been so nice! It’s hard to believe that summer is already half over! We have gotten to go camping several times and out to visit many family and friends. Life’s been very good to us – that’s for sure! Along the journey we got to see my cousin, Samantha, get married to Brad. Their wedding was gorgeous with waves crashing onto the beach and I was lucky enough to photograph their trash the dress the day after their ceremony.

OK so her dress isn’t totally TRASHED but it did get wet. There were a few drinks spilled on it the night before so we just took it out for a washing

This lake is probably my favorite place in the world (in the summer of course). My family has been going to this lake as long as I can remember. I remember our first visits to Nesslin were just for the beach itself! My family is all about some camping and I spent many summer’s out there. I could babble on and on about memories but I just have to say how special it was to be there with my cousin celebrating one of the biggest days of her life.  I loved our shoot having the golden sandy beaches and crystal clear water as a backdrop to our day after session and bridals. Thanks Samantha and Brad – hope you like the shots!
