Jake & Allyson – you two are adorable!! Their wedding day was full of laughter, cheers, squeels of excitement, joyful moments and lots of great music. I met Allyson and her bridesmaids and mom over at The Padre Hotel for getting ready photos and can’t say enough how much I love the light there! The beautiful, clean rooms provide such a great backdrop for photos. Allyson was such a calm, gorgeous bride full of smiles and anticipation of marrying her best friend. I had a great time working with the girls while Jennifer Williams was photographing and being entertained by the groomsmen over at the church (I heard a mechanical bull was involved!) The day was seamless and all of Allyson’s planning kept the day stress free so they could enjoy living in the moment and enjoying those surrounding them as they start this new life together.
Here is a look at some of my favorites from the first part of the day – enjoy and Allyson and Jake, hope Hawaii is an amazing adventure for you two!! Big hugs! Jessica
Allyson, my dear – you are stunning!! Such a gorgeous bride!
Love this shot of Allyson with her mom!
The ceremony was at their home church where Jake is involved on the worship team – Valley Baptist
I’m not sure there was a dry eye in the church when Jake surprised Allyson with a song he’d written just for her on their wedding day. It was so sweet and this boy has some major talent!
