Northern California Wedding Photography-Junction City, Ca.-Kayla & Jaime

One really exciting thing about being a wedding photographer is getting the opportunity to photograph the weddings of my friends, new and old. Almost 2 years ago my friend Jaime came to me with the unique idea of photographing the proposal to his girlfriend on Sundial Bridge in Redding, the location of one of their very first dates.

The wedding date was set and I was the wedding photographer. Destination: the parents of the bride's beautiful home: a mountain ranch in Junction City, Ca. Fresh mountain air, green grass and trees as far as the eye could see. The wedding day was beautiful and everyone was excited about pictures. The father of the bride even pulled out a Ford4000 tractor for us to use as a wedding day prop. Kayla and Jaime sure knew how to put on a reception: homemade tamales, a smoke pit bbq and even a dunk tank!

As a wedding photographer, it is important to capture those special details of every wedding. Some of the most important details of the wedding day are, of course, the rings, the dress and the shoes. As we were photographing the rings, Sean noticed this cute "sprinkler dog" looking up at it's forehead and said, "he just needs something on his head." I loved the idea!

The Bride, Kayla, was stunning and so were her girls. We had a drink on the tractor and mom even brought out a horse for a few pictures with the bride. However, the horses attention was distracted by the fresh green grass and even the bride's bouquet.

Before all the festivities of the evening began I captured some images of the couple beginning their new lives together as Mr. and Mrs. Fuentes. Congratulations to the newly weds, Jaime and Kayla!
