About a year ago, Megs & Chris were married at Beltane Ranch. Their magnificent wedding sticks in my mind like it was yesterday; I feel like I can play it back with the easiest of cuing. It was all the magical things you dream a wedding could be, but the extra special ingredient was Megs & Chris. It is such a gift to know them and to be among their love. Their Bee Session was a bit of an anniversary celebration. A kind of early morning/post-night out toasting the past year...and back among the greatness of Beltane. There was sweet reminiscing.

Megs is amazing at wedding styling and vision and is the genius woman behind forget me knot weddings. I love her site and all she does.

Over the holidays I was chatting with my sister about my gratitude for the amazing people who allow themselves to be raw with me and my camera. It blows my mind. These gorgeous people are daring, honest and courageous in exposing their true selves. I'm not sure how well I would do if I were in their shoes so I'm constantly amazed by what I experience. The past few months in particular, a lot of women have knocked my socks off. Thank you everyone for your generosity and trust. I'm a lucky girl.

Skeeters & Justin's wedding day enthusiasm rippled throughout the seats at the LA SmogShoppe. Skeeters beamed and laughed her way down the aisle & once together, she & Justin roared and cried. Tons of sweetness. These two fit like a glove, melt into each other's arms (see their first dance), savor quiet moments just as much as a great laugh together. They are beautiful.

Check out the great design work by Jen Wood--film themes galore including reels, vintage cameras & radios and one of the coolest guest book ideas I've seen. To boot, this is a Bee Green wedding with at least five eco-elements. Love, love, love.
