This stunning Lake Tahoe wedding was what got me /really/ hooked on shooting weddings.

When I finished up the incredible Photographing Weddings workshop with Bre Thurston, she suggested I reach out to Anita Martin Photography to see if she needed a second shooter. Anita told me she needed a second shooter for a Lake Tahoe wedding in September, and I jumped on the chance! I already posted a little about our weekend up there here, but I have been dying to share the photos from the wedding with you. The couple was so down to earth and, as a bonus, they were pretty much model gorgeous too! The mountains and trees made a beautiful backdrop for the bridal portraits, and the bride’s veil was amazing!  I loved how open the bride was with her emotions and I definitely got a little teary eyed myself watching the reactions to the speeches. Everything was so relaxed and there was so much love and happiness throughout the day. It really was a perfect wedding.

These two little girls were with all the bridesmaids getting ready and I just had to snap their photos! Too cute!

It was a gorgeous sunny day, especially during the ceremony!

After the ceremony, we snuck off for a few bridal portraits.

How gorgeous were those mountains and trees? I just love Tahoe… and both the bride and groom were stunning and so in love!

I was obsessed with the bride’s veil! So pretty!

We wanted to take photos down by the lake, so the groom and groomsmen had to help the bride down! How pretty are the bridesmaids in their long, flowy gowns? And the flowers were gorgeous!!

My favorite part of the evening was definitely watching the bride and groom during the speeches!

Thank you again to Anita Martin Photography for letting me second shoot with her! It was an amazing experience.
