Congratulations Kari and Doug!

I had the pleasure of shooting Kari and Doug's wedding this weekend at Indian Hills Country Club out in Indio! It was a bit of a drive for me but completely worth it and absolutely gorgeous!!! As with any wedding there were a few things that didn't go as planned but Kari took it like a champ ! She looked absolutely stunning in her empire wedding dress from David's Bridal. And I was in love with her classic colors of black and white! What a fun wedding to be at! Congrats again Kari and Doug and here is your sneak peak :)

BANDAIDS lol she got a pimple or a bug bite or a scratch or something but she kept picking it until it would bleed I decided bandaids would be a good thing :)

Poison Apple

I am on cafemom and in a few photography groups. One was doing a contest titled poison. And it was left up to interpretation. For some reason when I heard poison I couldn't help but associate it to a poison apple. Thought I would share my take on it :) What do you think?

The groom asked me to get several ring shots. I believe he said his wedding band belonged to his father before he passed.
