Marya and Michael are such a beautiful, fun, and amazing couple! Marya’s sister Alaina nominated them for my 2011 Giveaway with the following letter:
I would like to nominate my sister and her fiancee Michael for the photo giveaway. My sister is one of the most generous caring people I know. She goes out of her way to make sure everyone around her is having a good time and is happy, even if it is at her own expense. Michael is definitely a character in so many great ways and he loves my sister with all his heart…
And Alaina’s letter is so true – I feel truly blessed that I was able to document their wedding and become friends with such a fun couple. Their wedding was full of love and emotion – I wanted to cry while they read their vows! It was held at the historic Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa – the perfect setting. The reception, at Edna Valley Vineyard, was full of laughter and PLENTY of dancing! I don’t think there could have been anything to make the day more perfect for Marya and Michael.

Thanks to Erin for capturing this great photograph of Michael in the church before the ceremony!
I love the reaction that Erin captured of Marya with her father and Michael’s first time seeing Marya.
We had such a great time with the bridal party! I love the fun photo Erin was able to capture of the boys & no matter what I asked the girls to do they made it their own. I loved it!
The Cakery provided the beautiful cake and Melinda Lynch of Festive Designs made the amazing floral arrangements.
Aren’t Marya and Michael such a gorgeous couple? Congratulations again to you both!
I loved having Erin Davenport (www.erindavenport.com)2nd shoot with me – thank you Erin for working with me to capture beautiful images (and keep track of the sunset time!).
And a special thank you Jessi Skipton for the beautiful hair and makeup; Phoenix Catering (the food was delicious); and Scott Muir of Muir Music for the great music.
