I love these photos of the bridal party... they totally describe who they are. Women: Fierce. Men: Goofballs and trouble makers. Together: Total package.

These birds flew by and Dan spontaneously kissed Michelle on the cheek right at the perfect moment. I almost died of happiness.

This might be, straight up, my favorite Bride/Groom portrait of all time. The light was so amazing, I seriously want to cry I love this photo so damn much:

They had tons of fun details!! Michelle's Mom made the card box. Michelle is in graphic design and made the invitations, programs, and the table numbers are hand painted by her! They also had a series of their grandparents wedding photos framed on the entry table with a little note. Lovely.

It's a crime you can't be at every wedding to create such beautiful pictures. Just amazing.
I'm such a bum for saying the same thing in every comment, but it's true!
gorgeous photos. When I find a man...if it's in Oz..I may have to fly you out. Love it!

I must say that I may have to fly you out when I have my wedding so that you can be my photographer, this are amazing and I love every single one, I can't choose a favorite!
Jenn, your wedding pics are soooo gorgeous. sigh. how do feel about Australia...?
My favourite one out of the whole bunch is the second to last with all the city lights! Stunning.
That black and white graphic theme they've got is absolutely beautiful! And they're a gorgeous couple - love the photo of just the two of them on the metal walk with the sea behind them - lush!
Lovely photos. I especially love the one of the goofballs!!!
I love all the photos- you are so right- the light is amazing!
And I feel that I have to note something- I LOVE that her favors said "Stay Classy". I dont know if thats a reference to Anchorman or just a coincidence. But at least when I saw it I got a giggle :P
God damn I love your wedding photos! You capture everything perfectly every time!
It makes me wanna get married dammit!

Seriously if I ever renew my vows or get married to someone else I want you to take my photos!
