Beth, David & Shane at The Oaks...

Yesterday I was invited to shoot the intimate wedding of Beth, David & Shane. I know that usually there are only a bride & groom getting married, but yesterday Beth & David became husband & wife, and Beth, David & Shane officially became a family. 4 year old Shane is a doll, and since he pretty much stole the show I thought it only fair to include him in my blog. He was a very attentive (ok, not really, but he sure was CUTE!) best man, and was the picture of happiness as he helped give his mom to be united in marriage.

It was a very touching ceremony for me for so many reasons (just look at the pictures of them looking at each other during the ceremony!). Beth, David & their parents were all so gracious & warm, and the ceremony was so touching - especially the part where the bride & groom presented young Shane with an Oak sapling that they explained was to plant in their front yard so they could watch it grow into a big tree as they grew as a happy family. What a happy coincidence that they got married at "The Oaks" and hired "Acorn Photography" to document their special day!

As the mom of a young son, watching Davids mom wipe away tears of joy during the ceremony was enough to put a big lump in my throat even before Cantor Jan Morrison recited the Apache Wedding Blessing, which was read at my own wedding years ago. It was a very beautiful day, and I feel special for sharing it. Thank you Beth & David for allowing me to share your special day.

We hired Acorn Photography after getting a recommendation and viewing Beth's photographs on her website. We were so happy with the job Beth did. She was such a professional - prompt, organized, and willing to take all different types of shots. We feel we got so much more than we could have expected from any photographer... that is beacuse Beth was so personable and you could feel the enjoyment she gets from taking pictures. It was such a pleasure working with her and we feel so lucky to have found her!!!!

Thank you so much Beth!! You & your entire family were truly a pleasure to work with ~ I loved being a part of your special day. I'm thrilled that you enjoyed your Acorn Photography experience so much.
