This might be one of most favorite wedding stories to tell, so pull up a chair and get comfortable. This is going to take a while.
Holly and Hayden chose me for an engagement portrait session in Old Town Eureka and it went smashingly well. Starting with a shot of whiskey at The Shanty, I'm a sucker for peer pressure, and ending with all of us smelling suspiciously like colored smoke bombs and laughing our heads off.
When I delivered their online gallery of portraits, they were overjoyed with what we were able to capture and excited to have me photograph their upcoming wedding planned for Moonstone Beach & Merriman's.
Before the wedding could happen, however, they decided to skip all the stress of a traditional wedding and elope to somewhere tropical. Hayden emailed me to say the Trinidad wedding was cancelled and a Jamaican elopement was taking it's place.
Because photographing them in Jamaica sounded like an absolute dream, I figured it was worth asking if they still wanted me to photograph. Turns out, they did. Commence dream state.
