My cousin Heather got married to Sam in early June at Rancho Llano de Los Robles, a beautiful venue in Paso Robles. It was a perfect day surrounded by family and friends. I know you guys are dying to see some photos so I won’t blabber on anymore. Love you! Thank you for letting me document your big day!

Oh ya, and be sure to watch their slideshow at the bottom of the post!

Heather wore her Granmothers wedding shoes. I love them!

As you can see, Heather is a tiny thing, so therefore she had tons of fabric from getting her wedding dress altered so they had these adorable clutches made from her wedding dress! How awesome is that?

I had the pleasure of second shooting this gorgeous wedding with my dear friend Raquel Leal. Jenn and Rob beamed with happiness all day long. If they were stressed about anything during their big day, you sure couldn’t tell. It was a long day but it went by in the blink of an eye thanks to their super kind friends and family. They definitely made us feel like part of the family from the moment we stepped into Jenns house to get shots of the girls getting ready. So thank you Jenn and Rob, for making my job so darn easy. And thank you Raquel for letting me come along and be your navigator =)

Enjoy just a few (or more) of their wedding photos.

I love this. Jenn is showing her Mom and MOH how we laces up her shoes so they can do it the same on her dress.

The lace on her veil is actually from her Mothers wedding dress. I love little touches like this.

Now onto my favorite part of the day, and favorite photos of the day. Jenn and Rob gave us tons of time for portraits, which always rocks! So we took some golf carts and drove all around the golf course. These are some of my favorite photos to date.

A few details from the reception

I LOVED this guest sign-in idea. Instead of the traditional book, Rob and Jenn made a calendar out of their engagement photos and had guests sign in on their birthday! How cute and creative is that?

I must give a little shout out to Jenns MOH, she was THE best Maid of Honor I’ve ever witnessed. Plus she’s about the sweetest thing on the planet. Here she is giving one of the most heartfelt toasts I’ve ever heard.

Nothing says a money dance like a $20 bow on your head =)
