Stephanie and Ben planned their destination Lake Tahoe wedding from Southern California. This couple planned all the details of their intimate wedding day perfectly. A beautiful afternoon at Northstar at Tahoe with music that seemed to catch in the light breeze and float through the Aspen trees as the two exchanged vows in an outdoor setting at the base of the Northstar at Tahoe Village. It was an intimate event that included their closest family and friends and their two golden retrievers.

The gorgeous flowers were designed by Diana’s Floral Design.

Ben seeing Stephanie for the first time as her father walked her down the aisle. Bailey, their golden retriever played an excellent ring bearer and was on alert for any wedding crashers (like chipmunks, squirrels, etc.) that would interrupt their ceremony.






Ben’s nieces being super cute during the reception. Stephanie and Ben’s wedding cocktail was Jack and Coke, so I thought it appropriate to photograph the rings on their favorite drink.

Creating a little magic with their first dance finale and always looking for beautiful and available light, I grabbed this natural light portrait which has become a favorite of theirs from which they ordered a large size print for their home.
