Last weekend, I got to escape the Bakersfield heat and head up to Forresthill, CA – just north of Sacramento for Gina & Vinny’s wedding!!  Gina’s sister Stephanie is the amazing guru behind Gimmee Some Sugar (remember my Cinderella birthday cake, anyone?!) and I was so excited to be able to capture this day for their family.  I instantly fell in love with Gina’s color scheme – yellow and grey with bedazzled sparkles everywhere!  Seriously? A girl after my own heart 🙂  Jennifer Williams accompanied me to second shoot and we had a wonderful time meeting the family and enjoying the photo booth with everyone!  Watching Vinny & Gina (and Neveah) become a family unit was so special and sweet – the love that radiates when they look at each other was so powerful, I’m not sure there was s dry eye during the ceremony!  Vinny and Gina, thank you for letting us capture your big day and enjoy some of my favorite images – too many to choose from, so enjoy the long post!   Congratulations, hope you enjoyed Italy!!!  – Jessica

The detailed hair pieces and garter were amazing!!

 

Details are always so important  – and in Gina’s case, she had her grandmother’s wedding dress made into a beautiful lace flower for her bouquet along with a purse to carry that day.  So sweet and special!

Did you know there were this many different types of orange flowers?!! Simply stunning!

Girls, you all were fabulous to work with and made such a stunning bridal party!!
