Yosemite Valley. You could look at a thousand pictures and never know what it feels like to be standing next to a 4000 foot tall granite wall. Its….. amazing. It just makes you feel small and insignificant for a moment, and its a cool feeling, especially for city folk like me. Rob and I decided to take the scenic route, driving through small towns and windy roads instead of a dull freeway trip on cruise control. bleh. It was quite an adventure, worthy of its own blog entry, but this one is dedicated to my longtime friend and ex-dance partner Mishell, and her new hubby Christian.

They fell in love with Yosemite after their first visit, and I dont blame them! Nature on that scale is intoxicating. While Rob hung back in Camp 4 to goof around with the guys and get some cool shots, I left camp before dawn to meet the girls at Revive Salon in Oakhurst, about 90 mins of windy -fun- roads. The pros at Revive wasted no time, and had the girls looking beautiful in no time!






After the Salon, we went to Mishells quaint and well decorated motel room for a quick-yet-precise makeup session. This part never ceases to amaze me… I could never stick a pencil that close to my eyeball without freaking out! Of course, the girls looked great, and after getting dressed up we jetted off to the Valley to get this girl hitched!

Once we arrived, we kicked it into high gear, had a beautiful ceremony with two waterfalls in the background, and an intimate reception at a neaby beach.

I would lke to offer my congratualtions to the beautiful couple. Thanks so much for letting Dave and I record your wedding day. Thank you to Christian for making me feel very welcome at the campground and to both of you for making our job enjoyable.
