Last Saturday night I got to witness the biggest party I have ever seen... imagine over 150 people ALL ages... ALL DANCING... that was Emily & Rodrigo's goal and boy did they attain it.

From the minute this beautiful couple walked down the aisle together... or should I say danced down the aisle..to "Let's Get It Started" by the Black Eyed Peas, everyone knew what they were in for!!  They even surprised their guests with an AWESOME first dance... it started very slow with Adele's "Make You Feel My Love".. but then... scratch... next thing you know they were doing the cabbage patch and running man to "Baby Got Back".. with a fog machine, bubbles falling every where and a mini light show... it was like nothing I'd ever seen before!!!... I LOVED it!!!

This wedding was especially meaningful to me because Rodrigo called me about 9 months ago and said... "I'm proposing to my girlfriend... will you hide in the bushes and take pictures of it"... I had never been so nervous...  I could barely hold my zoom lens... but it all turned out amazingly!!!

Emily, Rodrigo... thank you so much for including me and allowing me to be a part of your engagement from the first moment...  You two are such caring and inspiring people.  I know your love will continue to inspire those around you where ever you go!!

Love,
A

And I also have to pay some major props to the Pierpont Inn in Ventura (and Nadine)... it was awesome... such a great location.. may be one of my new favorites..  and an extra special thank you to Kacie Jean for second shooting with me... it was such a blast to have her there with me!!
