Deanna + Cory | a backyard wedding

When I'm asked what my "favorite venue" is, it's never an easy answer. One thing that I find brings about happy couples, happy guests, and a great atmosphere to spend a day shooting is at a venue that people don't have to leave. That the ceremony leads to cocktail hour, leads to reception. My feelings are that it lets guests flow into each other. You're not moving from place to place within your own group, you have all night to spend getting to know family members from "the other side" and get into casual (awesome) conversations with once strangers. It's my favorite thing to be a part of, the energy is kinetic, and it's just so happy.

Deanna + Cory are adventurers, their story is anything but normal....and, true to themselves, they had a wedding that was just perfect for them.

Enjoy reliving their hot (remember summer?) July wedding day!
