So...  although I'm in a far off Eastern European country I HAD to talk about the AMAZING and Miraculous wedding I shot last Saturday.  Kali & Carey had such a week... from there adorable little dog being hurt to being evacuated because of the fires. . .to the location of the wedding (San Roque Catholic Church) being closed because of the fires... and the reason I call this wedding miraculous is that.. even though it seemed everyday the week before the wedding a new dillemma arose... the day ended up being absolutely perfect... the sun broke through the (needed marine layer) just in time for their outdoor ceremony...  even the Archbishop gave the church allowance to have the ceremony outside of the church grounds (a first in their history)...

Although facing problem after problem ... Kali & Carey were calm cool and collected... full of laughter and joy.  I was truly touched by the love around the entire celebration... it truely is a testament of the love they have for each other and the people closest to them.

Kali & Carey... I hope you two are finally able to relax and enjoy your honeymoon... I can't wait to catch up when we are all back in town.  It was truly my pleasure to be a part of your wedding...  thank you.

Love,
A

Also...  a very special thanks to my awesome assistant Cherry Thomas  and to Ellen at the Santa Barbara Polo Fields...  they did such an AMAZING job and it was absolutely beautiful... I was blown away.
