Shabnam and Joseph

Choosing you was the easiest part of the shit show that was wedding planning. Working with you is something I would choose over a hundred times, you get how silly and impulsive we are . And You’re so damn tall, but you move like a ghost to get a shot that is as if it was taken from right in front of me. I remember dancing with you for like two seconds, and otherwise, don’t remember seeing you. It’s unbelievable. Thank you for capturing our wedding so perfectly. I would love to buy you a drink whenever you’re in town and are free.

Bonnie, We can't thank you enough for your help in capturing our special day. We still go through and find new favorites of all you took and love every single one. It was a pleasure working with you from the engagement shoot to the wedding day. We really feel as if we made a friend in this whole process. Thank you for being you, Love, Amanda & Ryan
