Lumalia’s debut Memoir, Blooming Upside Down, is out now!

Grant New Mexico Wedding Photos

Brett and Dawn are both such sweet people, but also very reserved. I honestly felt like the best pictures from their wedding day are from the moments they forgot I was there. Which, I just love!! I adore capturing those moments that make you feel like you were there even if you weren’t.
I think this wedding was one of my favorite getting ready photos. 🙂

So, this bridesmaid should be a model because she has such gorgeous skin! No Photoshop magic to make her skin look this smooth, just good lighting!

Even though you can’t see anyone’s facial expression in this photo I am just take by it…I don’t think I could really explain why.

As they were walking down back to car I noticed the light was so pretty around them so I told them to stop really quick and look over their shoulder. 🙂 I tend to have a lot of these moments shooting…I call them my “Jesus moments” because they are kinda happen and I always credit them to Jesus. 🙂

They played this game at the reception called the Shoe Game. The bride and groom grab their shoes and they are asked questions like: “Who is the better kisser” then they lift the shoe up to who is. It kinda hilarious. 😉

Brett was going to get in trouble if he shoved the cake in Dawn’s face…thankfully he was good.
