Photographing Kali & Paul’s wedding was super special to me. Not only did I get to hang out with some of my favorite clients – the Gebhardt family, but I got to be a part of a truly magical union of two families. Tears were shed, love was everywhere.

Vivian, Hugo and I left for Austin on Friday afternoon to make it in time for the rehearsal dinner. Kali & Paul surprised me with some awesome Gnome presents. They really were awesome, that’s my embarrassed/feeling so loved loved/trying not to cry, but failing face.

Wedding day came and it was gorgeous. The ceremony & reception location looked out on to the lake with a killer blue sky. Smile Hugo, smile.

That’s one tall groomsman.

What face is this? This is the “OMG I just dropped the cake topper and broke it and the bride saw it all” face. WHAT!!!!!! O that’s right. In an attempt to photograph the cake uniquely, I spun it around and the topper – which was sitting on top of a spinning pedestal went flying and the little piece of glass that was on it shattered. Right in front of the bride who happened to be waiting for the cake cutting. I scooped it up and adjusted it, but this is the face that I made and Hugo caught it. Thanks for that Hugo. I will always remember the day I shouldn’t have spun the cake around!

In case you are wondering if Kali freaked, she didn’t. And I promptly found her another one and sent it to her! YAY for finding toppers on the internet that are no longer available in stores!
