Mike+Laura 8.21.10

Mike & Laura’s wedding was so fun to shoot. They are such fun people: always smiling, easy going, and complimentary of each other. Nicole & I felt honored to document such a fun and loving couple.

When we arrived in Chelesa, Laura was getting beautified! The best thing about Laura is that she is always smiling, and just truly happy.

The rainy day didn’t stop us from getting outdoor pictures. We waited for a break, and the whole bridal party worked it out! I was so thankful for such an easy going bridal party.

Love this of Laura with her girls ♥This is why I love having a 2nd shooter. Nicole’s angle:
Mike with his guys: classic!

I have to mention one thing about Mike. I just adore how he treats Laura. All day, I kept hearing him compliment her in little ways. What a stand up guy! This could be an album coverOne of my favorites:
