Valley Country Club wedding: Denise + Rob

It is no secret that my most favorite aspect of my job is capturing authentic emotion and real moments for my clients. Every time I catch a little glance between a couple or a few tears or hearty laughter or a meaningful look, I hope that my clients will remember how they were feeling at that exact moment when they see the photograph and that the collection of images altogether will help them relive those sentiments for forever. Denise + Rob had countless moments like that. In choosing and preparing the images for this blog post, I kept finding little series of photographs that I wanted to share. One led to another which led to another. The wry smile. The pointed gaze. The knowing glance. The laughter. All of it was such a joy to photograph. They chose to include all kinds of thoughtful touches into their wedding, from the photo of them in a laundromat on the placecard table to honor the place they met to all the details paying tribute to their favorite TV show, Supernatural, a series that follows two brothers who hunt demons, ghosts, monsters and other creatures. In addition, the ring bearer carried the wedding bands to the altar in a toy car. The couple gifted custom air fresheners to their guests as a little surprise at the end of the evening. And the newlyweds delighted their guests when they delivered a carefully choreographed first dance to a tune from a musical comedy series about falling in love at a laundromat. It was wonderful! Here are many, many of my favorites from Denise + Rob’s Mansion at Valley Country Club wedding.

 In lieu of black roses, Denise asked her florist to incorporate black feathers into her bouquet. Hooray for Super Woman!   The bride, looking lovely. Meanwhile, at the nearby home of a friend, Rob got ready with his friends as well.  And then, it was time to get married.  I love this next image that my assistant at this wedding, Jenni, shot.

Look at these two!   Married! After a few family and wedding party photos at on the altar of Our Lady of Hope Church, we headed to the reception venue at the Mansion at Valley Country Club. But we lucked out with some incredible late-afternoon light at a tiny stretch of woods nearby. So lovely! And very serendipitous since Denise + Rob had wanted to be photographed in a woodsy setting.  A few detail shots from the reception.  A pair of toasts.  A little cake cutting.  A fun first dance.   And lots of fun and frivolity! Many, many congratulations, Denise + Rob! It was such a pleasure to work with you for your big day!
