The celebration of Elizabeth and Kyle at the CIA

Recently I had the honor of photographing Elizabeth and Kyle’s wedding in Calistoga, California. The whole day was full of family memories that made their wedding very personal. Kyle’s uncle gave their vows at the same church Elizabeth was baptised at. My personal favorite was when Elizabeth walked down the isle to a beautiful string rendition of “Don’t Stop Believin.” I found myself silently singing along. It was beautiful, and as she walked down the isle she was filled with tears! After six years of being together Elizabeth and Kyle celebrated their marriage in style a the Culinary Institute of America. It was a gorgeous setting including a surprise bagpiper for Kyle that led them into the dining hall. Their friends and family danced the night away!

Congratulations you two! Thanks for letting me be a part of your beautiful wedding!

    Hi Newly Weds,
    Elizabeth I was just looking at all the photos that Britt burned for me, you are sooo beautiful in every one as is Kyle handsome in every one. I have a great shot that I captured of you throwing the bouquet. I will get it enlarged and have Britt give it to you. I’m just learning how to work my new camera, but I really got lucky with this one.
    Love, Valaree

    EWi, there are unbelievable. You and your friends are adorable, and your photographer should win a award for her creativity. Looks like quite the affair. Just one question… who is that guy you’re with?
    :) Congrats thanks for sharing,
    -Jeff
