Dear Brayden Bittel,

Thank you for making my first mother’s day amazing! And thank you for making me a mommy. Everyday you amaze me. I never imagined someone’s smile could melt my heart the way your smile does. I never imagined I could be so proud of someone for actually getting their thumb in their mouth. I never imagined that I would actually like changing dirty diapers and that I actually dread the day I stop because it will mean you are growing up and getting big. I never imagined that when I looked into your eyes I could see a future so bright and with endless possibilities.

I love you more than words can describe. Thank you for helping me to see the world in a different way. I am so lucky to have you. I can’t wait to spend a bizillion more mother’s days with you.

Love,

Mommy

Dear Mamaw,

Thank you for being the best Mamaw in the whole wide world! Thank you for watching me on Saturdays so my Mommy can get some rest or work or shower without me screaming. Thank you for not dressing me in cowboy outfits anymore. Thank you for being silly and making me laugh. Thank you for being pretty and not looking like your Mamaw (she was kind of scary looking). Thank you for teaching my Mommy how to be a good Mommy. Thank you for loving me so much.

Happy Mamaws day, Mamaw! I love you very, very much!

Love,

Brayden Bittel

Natalie likes the cake and Scott likes the frosting. How much more perfect can two people be for one another? I guess that’s why they decided to get married

Natalie and Scott were married at the Villa de Amore in Temecula on May 3rd. This was the second time I shot at the Villa and it’s just breathtaking out there. It helped to have the amazing Jenny B as their florist. She made an already gorgeous venue even more beautiful. I always love working with her and not just because she brings me presents every time

It was my first time working with Kendra from Prima Events and I would highly recommend checking her out if you’re looking for a coordinator. I don’t recommend very many coordinators, but she did a great job of keeping everything running smoothly and attending to all the little details. She even went and bought more beer when they ran out after the cocktail hour. Yeah, it was a good party

Natalie is one of the sweetest brides I’ve ever worked with. She sent a card when Brayden was born. She helps me find things I’m looking for on the internet. She’s just a very thoughtful girl and I’m so happy her day was perfect. I’m also very excited to shoot their day after session in a couple of weeks! I hope you two are enjoying Maui! You two are awesome and I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for you! Enjoy your slide show!

The gorgeous dress

I love it when brides think outside the box and wear different color shoes!

Doesn’t she look stunning?

Scott and the guys aren’t too bad either

The reception details

Natalie had different bouquets for each of her bridesmaids. What a great idea!

The cutest flower girl and ring bearer!

Natalie choose Villa de Amore because of the vines, so we took advantage of them and got some great shots in the vineyard

Love the reception details

I love grooms cakes!

The first dance

They were pretty cool for being DG’s. D to the E to the L. L to the T to the A. T to the R. R to the I. Delta Delta Delta Tri! Sorry I couldn’t help myself. I’ll always be a Tri Delt at heart

Everyone really wanted this girl to catch the bouquet

And, guess what? She caught it. Need a wedding photog?
