If it were up to me, I'd have a photographer follow me around every beautiful day in my life (the bad hair days, she could skip). So the idea of a love sesh in Mexico after the big day, is one I'm completely on board with.

It may sound funny, but whenever I see a wedding from a team of talents like this bunch, I get a bit nervous. Call it star struck.

Smile right along with her here. From the Bride...Nelson and I met...
This, lovelies, is a little something we like to call DIY perfection... aka, one seriously adorable bride (+ family and friends) getting her craft on.

It's a lesson in pure awesomeness with a big ol' dash of pretty thrown in for good measure and you can see it all captured by Beth & Ty in Love right...
This wedding right here? It's the kind of wedding that makes you want to scrap every last plan you've ever had and jet off to Hawaii to say "I do." The kind of wedding that seamlessly combines drop-dead gorgeous rustic details, beautiful images from Derek Wong Photography and a seaside reception location that is all kinds of magical. In other words, it's a wedding that will seriously take your breath away, and you can start the...
Oh my goodness, are these two in love. Like that kind of love that you wish you could experience for just one day, because it is so very, very awesome.

Aside from the fact that this wedding is off the charts beautiful, I'm absolutely tickled pink that the (stunning) bride found her photographer, Kellie Kano, on the pages of SMP. It's just so rewarding to hear the work, if you can really call it work, we do to shine a beautiful light on these stunning weddings and the vendors behind them is really paying off.
