Ben + Jessica {Beach Retreat & Lodge in South Lake Tahoe, CA}

What a fun wedding this was to capture, the day was gorgeous not a thunderstorm cloud in the sky. A few days before there was a huge thunderstorm that caused mud slides and flood warnings but the sun was bright and
beautiful. Jessica was surrounded by her friends and family while they were getting all ready. Mimosas were being poured and lots of smiles and laughs. Ben was relaxed and ready to see his bride. There were a few special moments that stuck out to me. Jessica and her dad shared a sweet moment before the wedding a few tears shed, Ben & Jess made a grand exit with lots of dancing and spinning to one of their favorite Beatles songs, Ben’s brother danced gangnam style with a baby on his back and a beer in his hand & their son sang puff the magic dragon and Ben was a proud dad. Lots of wonderful memories were made and they are blessed to have such an amazing support system. 

Love you both Ben & Jess!!!
