Peter and Evie's rings

I'm in Colorado right now, attending a business workshop by Jeff Jochum...and though I'm sleep-deprived and borderline sick and my brain hurts 'cause it's working hard, I'm having a ball!  :)  Jeff is a business genius with a very impressive resume and tremendous skill at dishing out tough love to all of us attendees.  We're all evaluating and analyzing and growing a lot.

In the midst of all this brain-exercising, I still wanted to get a blog post up and share these lovely shots of Peter and Evie's rings...Christmas light bokeh makes December weddings so much fun!!  :)

Evie's lovely bouquet...

  

 

And...I saved best for last.  :)  I love this image.  The combination of Christmasy and dreamy and magical and twinkly just makes me all happy inside.  It's so beautifully representative of Peter and Evie's wedding.

That's all for now!  Back to brain-frying with Jeff and my compatriots.  ;)  It's been a great day and tomorrow is going to be even better!  God bless your day, too, whatever's in it!  :)

Grace and the girls...and some detail images

So, in all frankness, I have to say...getting-ready shots with the girls can be kind of tricky...they don't want photos taken before they have their hair and makeup done, because they don't think they look their best, and often they have a gazillion things on their minds as everything winds up to The Ceremony!  ;)  But I think these girls were one of the calmest, happiest group of friends I've seen getting ready.  They were already glowing with happiness for their friend/sister and the hair and makeup only added to it!

Love the happy smiles.

Um, and slippers.  Those made us all smile too!

Grace's beautiful dress

The beautiful Elizabeth :D

I love shoes...and these were great...thanks for the fun, Grace!  :)

Steven and Grace's rings with Grace's veil (notice the size difference? so adorable!)

And we all love Maricruz and her playful smile!  :D

Grace's mother

Parting shot...the shoes again.  :)

I'll be away for a conference this weekend, but I have many more photos to post when I get back!  Till then God bless you all!

Steven and Grace in Mexico!

Yesterday Steven married Grace in a lovely garden wedding in San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico!  It's rainy season here, and it's been pouring every day, but God gave them lovely blue sky during the ceremony.  Talk about answered prayer!

I'm heading home early tomorrow (not today as planned because Mexicana cancelled my flight...ugh...so today involves a long bus ride to a different airport).  But I wanted to share a few photos with you.  Many more coming, of course!  You can check www.photographybykelsey.zenfolio.com/stevenandgrace in the next few weeks to see all the photos.

Brent and Chantil

These last few weeks have been so full I've barely had time to post, but I had to give you a quick peek of Brent and Chantil's wedding last Saturday.  They are such a sweet couple.  I love seeing how they love and honor each other, and the way they each admire the other's qualities.  And I am sure they have a wonderful life ahead of them together!

More later...
