When you get to work with a couple whose engagement request includes being photographed with mini donkeys…you just KNOW their wedding day is going to be equally as awesome. And it totally was.

Abby and Jeff had such a gorgeous wedding. The day couldn’t have been more perfect – blue skies, fluffy clouds, sweet light, and heckuva lot of smiles, laughter and love. These two had some of the most hilarious and sweet wedding vows I’ve heard, which had everyone in stitches.

And that was the theme of the day – pure happiness and joy, surrounded by friends and family (many of whom traveled all the way from Chile to join the festivities!)

We definitely soaked up that sweet light, too, and I’ve got to thank Abby and Jeff for being game enough to hike the hillside for me so we could get some photos with the tall grasses and bright little flowers.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, folks began to dance – and dance they did! The hora dance was particularly spectacular, and that amazing energy continued on throughout the evening.

Thank you again, Abby and Jeff, for inviting me into such a special day in your lives! My face hurt from smiling (always a good thing!), and Jeff, you seriously do give the best bear hugs. :) Here’s to many, many happy years together, full of zoo visits, laughter, bear hugs, excellent food, and lots and lots of love.
