I first met Kelley and Mike at her sister Kristin’s wedding last year. Kristin and Matt’s wedding at Eagle Castle (HERE) was a blast to photograph so, when Kelley and Mike contacted me, I was thrilled to be a part of their celebration!
Kelley and Mike held their wedding up at Santa Margarita Ranch during the solar eclipse last Sunday. One of the ranch’s train conductors (yes, Santa Margarita Ranch has a train to ferry guests from one location to the next) had a welders mask which allowed me to take an image of the eclipse with my 135mm lens. There was a gathering of cell phone cameras uploading the image from the back of my camera straight to Facebook after I snapped the shot :).
As the evening came to an end, I found myself wishing that Kelley and Kristin had more sisters who were planning weddings. I’ve really enjoyed my time with their family and am honored to have been chosen to document their weddings.
Be sure to check out the little video (below) I put together as I was doing the photography throughout the day.
