Melissa and Rick - A Yosemite Wedding
>> Tuesday, June 23, 2009

Melissa and Rick chose a memorable day to be married- Father's day. They gathered with close friends and family to celebrate at the Ahwahnee in Yosemite Valley and had a ceremony in the shadows of Half Dome. Their wedding was full of unique and personal touches, but their love spread across everyone and everything.
Once again, James Steed shot with me throughout the day and helped me keep my head on my shoulders!


These little guys were waiting outside of Melissa's room while all the girls got dressed. They tried their best to be patient...


Mystery and intrigue, or just cover model?
It really is hard to find a place more breathtaking than this to have a ceremony!



Melissa and Rick had an amazing bridal party who did everything possible to help out. What great friends!
The Solarium at the Ahwahnee is simply a beautiful room with expansive views of the surrounding valley.



In the middle of the reception, Rick shocked us all with his voice as he sung directly to his new wife who simply closed her eyes and soaked it in.


After the reception, we took Melissa and Rick through the park for a photo shoot.





A beautiful shot of Melissa, the bride/fashion model.
You should have seen the contorted position I put myself in. Actually, I'm surprised James didn't get a shot of it to blackmail me with.
Big thanks again to Melissa and Rick - I wish that your adventures never end!
