I’ve known Mike since we were little.. having been one of my brother’s best friends, we’ve done our fair share of picking on one another and have gone through so many stages of our lives since those days.  I can honestly say, as many others did on their wedding day, I have never seen Mike as happy as he is when he is with Christine.  The witty, sarcastic side of him subsides (I mean really, it never fully goes away) and you can truly see the love they have for one another.  It is an awesome thing to witness.. and on Christine + Mike’s wedding day I got to photograph it.  It was amazing.

The day started with getting ready at Christine and Mike’s home..
Then we moved on to the beautiful Jefferson Street Mansion where getting ready continued..
I am not kidding when I say I could’ve done an entirely separate blog post of just Christine’s bridal portraits.  She was such a stunningly beautiful bride!
Christine + Mike chose to see each other before the ceremony, which is always nice for more photos!
One of my absolute favorites..
Mike was wearing the same socks his father wore on his wedding day, 41 years prior.  AWESOME.
Loved the custom charger plates..
Angel’s Petals did an amazing job on all of the flower arrangements, especially Christine’s bouquet!
Soo you know how the Giants won the World Series??  Well Mike is a huge Giants fan, so Amanda (one of Christine’s bridesmaids) made him a SF Giants grooms cake!!  Some serious talent there..
A photo of me with the bride + groom!

Congratulations Christine + Mike!  Thank you so so much for allowing me to be a part of your day, it was such an honor.  I hope you are having a wonderful time in St Lucia!!
