A few weeks ago one of my best friends got married. Other than Neil he is my only male best friend. He married Annabel in Breckenridge, Colorado and it was lovely. Fortunately for me they also hired one of my friends to be their wedding photographer, Jess Keener. She was totally cool with my joining in on the more fun part of the day ie: prime time couple time. TOTALLY the best part of every wedding and its so sad when people only allot 5 minutes for photos of them all alone with no wedding party. Anyway, we started the day with Annabel. I loved her dress and her veil and her slip (not shown but its her “something blue”) and her shoes. Everything was adorable. Oh I loved her bouquet too. So earthy and beautiful.

Sadly enough we didnt have much time for “groomals’ which I know Michael was looking forward to but I did get this one of his smiling face right before their first look.
They got married and then we headed to the reception where they danced. Michael and Annabel are also lindy hoppers (quite talented ones too.) so you know the dancing is good.


Then we took off again for some sweet photos in the golden hours. We ended up taking a LOT longer than anticipated but look at the AWESOME shots we have to show for it!






I am so happy for you two. I wish many years for you two and Annabel, if you ever need anything just let me know. I’m here for ya. I know how it is being married to the military. Its hard work.
