Collin & Amanda were married at Mount Charleston in Las Vegas Nevada. I was thrilled to celebrate with these families as the groom’s family holds an incredibly special place in my heart. When we were planning to move out to San Diego from IL, our house sold quicker than anticipated and they opened their basement to allow our small family of three to stay there for the summer. I knew Collin through high school and wondered what quality, amazing gal was going to come along and steal his heart. Amanda is amazing. Beyond amazing! From our first phone call, I fell in love with her gentle and quiet spirit. She is so genuine, kind, thoughtful and I knew he had found himself a great girl.
Their wedding was beautiful. The mountains of Mount Charleston were their backdrop and it was stunning! Lianna Marie of Lianna Marie Photography helped me out for the day and I was incredibly grateful! If anyone is in need of a Las Vegas wedding photographer, she was wonderful to work with and captured some great images.
Congratulations Collin and Amanda!
I can’t even express how crazy I am over all that lace. Look at that gorgeous texture!
A favorite bridal portrait!!! Doesn’t she look gorgeous!!
As we were preparing for her first look with Collin, Amanda’s dad snuck out for a peak at his baby girl.
And here we go… this moment.
This black and white image below is a favorite!! Timeless.
Collin was captivated by his bride. He adored her and his eyes were locked on her from the moment she stepped down that aisle.
While we stayed back and did some family photos, Lianna captured some beautiful shots of the reception which was hosted by a family friend at a ranch just down the mountain. It was a beautiful property and worked so perfectly for the reception plans they had in mind!
It was a beautiful wedding all around. I was so honored to photograph Collin and Amanda and truly loved seeing how excited they were over each other. Collin and Amanda, thank you for allowing me into your day. You two kept me smiling all day with your sweet spirits and gentle care for one another.
