Kristin and Andrew tied the knot on May 16, 2009 at Casa De Suenos, in Albuquerque.

This wedding was a blast!  I have never seen so many people laugh and cry and laugh and cry in one day than I did at this wedding.  Such a nice group of people and what a great couple, you can tell they are truly in love.

Thanks so much you two, for letting me be part of your special day.

I approach the brides room to see if Kristin’s ready and hear the music crankin’.  Just a little pre-wedding dance party for the ladies.

Something old, something new, something awesome! I really dig her shoes. 

Never to be taken too seriously.

I met some pretty cool photographer folks at this wedding.  Yup, that dude also performed the ceremony. 

Andrew’s Mom and Dad. 

Just as we are starting some “romantic” pictures of Kristin and Andrew, Kristin hears Journey playing.  It was critical that some serious lipsyncing must happen.

Okay, back to it.

You’ve all met Jennifer and Derek in their Engagement Session last fall and Jennifer’s Bridal Session was a few weeks prior to the wedding in Old Town.    On June 20, 2009 Jennifer and Derek tied the knot in a gorgeous outdoor ceremony at Paa-Ko Ridge Golf Course.

To Jennifer and Derek, thank you so much for making me a part of your special day!
