From their first email Stacey and Vince were specific on the type of photos they wanted, less predictable, ‘cookie cutter,’ and more real moments. I love when my clients have a specific vision and it’s something I keep in mind as I go about documenting the day. Some highlights:

They put together custom playlists for getting ready, cocktail hour, dinner, etc. The jams on the party bus were so fun!
The ring bearer passed the rings over to Vince in a football shaped purse (he’s a football coach) and Stacey carried it for the rest of the day.
Stacey is a true animal lover and I have so many photos of her stopping and meeting dogs throughout the day. We also took plenty of photos of Vince and their dog Abigail for her desk.
The photos of them waiting in the stairwell at Monterey Bay and walking across the street at sunset are my personal favorites. I can almost feel the joy and excitement of the day when I look at them.

Their wedding was a perfect representation of their relationship and that’s what I want for all couples. Something I remind everyone is ‘it’s your day,’ make it feel the most you. Congrats again to Stacey and Vince, your day was an absolute blast!!
