Well, it’s April and my first wedding of the 2017 season is this weekend, so I think it’s finally time to share a few of my favorite images from my short but sweet 2016 wedding season! We came home from Europe in July and that weekend I had my first wedding – my dear friend Alex and his beautiful bride tied the knot at Jaccuzzi Winery. From then on, it was go go go with lots of awesome travels and beautiful couples in love. I’m so glad (and lucky!) that I got to travel a ton last year for weddings and engagements – Seattle, Ohio, Vermont, Nashville, LA (and a quick corporate incentive trip in Costa Rica!) – because it kept my wanderlust at ease after a year of traveling and exploring. With eight weddings between July and November, it was the perfect way to ease back into weddings and shooting portraits. I got to work with some INCREDIBLE vendors at some unbelievable venues that I had never shot at before, which is always exciting and gets my creative juices flowing.  Every wedding was absolutely stunning and each was unique in their own way – from rustic, handmade ranch weddings to black tie, classy affairs – and it was a season filled with lots of fun and tons of beautiful, happy days. Without further ado, here are some of my favorite moments from 2016:
