in love with this wedding dress and photo shoot! As an artist,

I am drawn in by the wonderful abstract backdrop.

Wedding Bliss

We attended the wedding of Rebecca and David Trevey this summer in Lexington Kentucky. The setting was dreamlike, the beautiful bouquets rivaled Martha Stewart, and the mood was "way too much fun"... Rebecca's color choice of plum was perfect for the occasion. I am so happy to have been part of this very special day ~ love you guys!

and then they "kicked it up a notch" to say the least... Those girls know how to rock!

as well as the gents!

David, I am so happy for the both of you!!
