Finally, we get to post my cousin, Sarah's, wedding!  We're excited that Wedding Chicks featured their wedding today.  Angel Swanson of Love & Splendor pulled off another beautiful wedding for us to shoot at the Pasadena City Hall down in Los Angeles.  It was surreal shooting at the house that my cousin grew up in and where we went every summer to swim as kids.  I'm so glad that we also got to spend more time with Steve, who we got to know better during our engagement photo shoot with him and Sarah out in Philadelphia.  It was a hot day to shoot, but none of that mattered when all our families were there to celebrate our first cousin getting married.  Growing up I never imagined that I would photograph my own cousin's wedding.  So glad I did though!

I love how my aunt is running tighter security on Sarah here than the Secret Service.  I'm sure Steve would have lost the full use of his right hand had he put more than a drop of cake on her nose.

This was quite possibly the sweetest and most emotional mother/son dance I've ever seen.  She hugged him so tight and they just cried together.

Best post-wedding snack ever!  The Korean Kogi BBQ taco truck came and fed all the late night partygoers.

This is my dad in this wig, from whom I get my sense of humor.
