This is a wedding I’ve been looking forward to all year long!

JoAnna and her family are dear, old friends and when I heard she was getting married, I couldn’t have been more happy for her. Then, when I got the call to do the wedding, I was kind of over the moon!

Mike and JoAnna had a fabulous wedding at the Inn at Tern Lake with a *HUGE* reception at the Windsong Lodge in Seward, Alaska.

The rain, unfortunately, didn’t take a break on the day of the wedding. But it sure didn’t dampen any spirits! If anything, it made the entire day more adventurous!

Jess and Will invited me to Cooper Landing on the Kenai Peninsula for their wedding at the beautiful Alaska Heavenly Lodge. True to 2010’s Alaska Summer Weather, it rained all day.

But this is Alaska, and it’s gorgeous no matter what the weather. Jess and Will knew this and embraced the weather with the same joy and love they have for each other. Their wonderful spirits truly came through on their day and I could not have asked for a more perfect environment to shoot. There was not one thing I didn’t absolutely, fall down on the ground, ADORE about this wedding. The rain included.
