Every single speech during the reception last night mentioned Beth’s infection laugh. And I got to experience it all day long. Elizabeth and Michael are truly the most joyful couple that I’ve had the pleasure of working with. My husband, Andry second shot this wedding with me, and he completely agreed that Michael and Beth’s Ritz Charles wedding was one of our all time favorites. From Elizabeth’s elegant ball gown, to the amazing lighting in the getting ready rooms, to the beautiful portrait locations in downtown Carmel, to the perfectly planned timeline, this wedding photographer was head over heels in love with everything and everyone I had the pleasure of photographing.

I was recommended to Elizabeth by her sister, who is also an amazing wedding photographer. Check out here work here! Ivana was Elizabeth’s matron of honor, so she couldn’t photograph her sister’s wedding. I was SO honored that she trusted me enough to capture her sister’s wedding. As an older sister myself, I completely understand how much you want the best for your sibling, so it meant the world to me. Ivana’s husband, Steven, captured the videography for this wedding, and I can’t wait to see the video when it’s finished!

Elizabeth and Michael, your wedding day was beyond amazing, and Andry and I were so honored to be a part of it. You are two of the most joyful, genuine souls we’ve ever met, and we are praying for you as you enter into the awesome adventure of marriage. Enjoy these sneak peaks while I finish editing your full gallery!
