I'm not sure what moved me most about Briana and Mike's wedding... the sweet note Mike sent over as Briana was getting ready, the way they gazed at each other during the first look, the way Mike's smile made his eyes dance when Briana walked down the aisle with her parents, all the words their eyes said silently to each other at the alter, the way Briana's dad stumbled nervously through his toast acknowledging that his daughter was now in Mike's hands, Mike dancing with his 93 year old grandmother, or perhaps the rainbows that kept appearing all afternoon.. a sure sign of a lucky union.








































We were shooting portraits when we noticed the first rainbow so I had everyone swing around really quickly to grab a group shot...



I love the idea of all your guests leaving a thumb print "leaf"...
Briana and Mike got their wedding cake where I got mine... yum.
