LYFEblog: Erika + Collin....A Sunlit Kiss

Tips for Planning Your Wedding

This is more like a photographer's wish list. It's a list of things you can do to ensure that you get the best images possible. And a few side tips too!

A Variety Pack

Black and White, Color, or a vintage feel. We love to give you lots of options when we edit each photo.

All The Details

Every little detail, every side story...we capture it all. We shoot all of our weddings as though it was our own.

All the Emotions

I love those moments where everyone lets there walls down and they just allow themselves to fall into that exact moment. It's the emotional part of the story.

Images by the Thousands

We get asked all the time...How many pictures do you take? The answer...on average we take 2000-5000 images

We first fell in love with photography. Then many years later we fell in love with each other. We combined our passions and found a way to spend more time together. An innovative photography company prevailed.

Erika + Collin....A Sunlit Kiss

Posted by Unknown On Monday, March 14, 2011

I remember all the little details of the wedding, but for some reason there was one moment that left a sensory trail that I can't forget. The moment she put on her bright red heels...check. I remember that. The moment she first saw Collin...check. I remember that too. But the moment we took our first steps out of the hot reception room and felt the ocean air on our faces I got chills. The wind whirled all around us and the sun lit up every aspect of the scenery. The sky was glowing orange. I took a huge breath, it filled my lungs and felt amazing.
Erika began to spin around in circles allowing her dress to flow up around her. She must have felt the same magic that I was feeling. Collin just stood back and watched his new bride dance around like a little girl in her favorite dress up gown. As her face turned flush from running in the wind she plopped down on the grass and lade down under the sun. Collin joined her and in one moment they were completely lost in each other. It didn't matter that a camera was clicking away or that the air was starting to feel a bit chilly. They were celebrating their new life together.
That IS the moment I remember. That IS the moment that is permanently marked in my mind.

Congratulations Erika and Collin...you guys are an extraordinary couple!

This has to be one of my favorite ceremonies ever. Collin + Erika have an amazing sense of humor and it was highlighted by the fact that her veil kept blowing straight up into the air. Collin couldn't hide his laughter which made the whole situation that much more hilarious. Luckily Erika is the coolest chic ever and was able to laugh along with him.
