It was one one of the sweetest weddings I have ever been a part of. There is no doubt that Ken and Suzy are head over heals for one another. I hope you two have a wonderful, happy life together!

Michelle is a graphic designer and photographer herself so I knew this was going to be a great wedding. We started the day with foreboding weather, but we were able to get all of the pictures in (barely) before it started to pour. It ended up being a perfect day for a wedding.

They had a sunny morning wedding/luncheon. It was a multicultural affair with GREAT food (and I have tried a lot of wedding food), wonderful music, and a lot of close family and friends. I really loved being a part of their wedding day. Lucy and Luis are just so sweet. They are the kind of couple who I wish I could just hang out with.
