When I think over Brian and Sierra, my heart gives a happy smile. They are perfect for each other and show a friendship that will make them continue to grow together. I am excited to see what their future holds! It is going to be beautiful!
When we came to Second Star, the guys were just finishing getting ready.
Brian was looking so handsome in his suit!
What great place for some fun Groom and Groomsmen photos!
In the meantime, Sierra and her ladies were just finishing getting ready! She was beautiful!
I love moments like these! Sierra and her mom…
Second Star has so many beautiful rooms! They pair nicely with these pretty ladies!
But photos with these girls wouldn’t be complete without some silliness!
She is ready! and Stunning!
Oh wow!
What an absolutely stunning group of women!
My second shooter, Amanda, caught these great behind the scenes of me with the girls!
They found their way into second stars secret candy room!
Sierra with her mom and Grandmother! Its easy to see where the beauty comes from!
Brians Brother was a huge help during the wedding… he catered, sang, officiated the ceremony… we joked that he was a one man wedding maker, so we had to get this shot of his awesome multitasking, and handed him a microphone and camera too!
Sierra’s mom is stunning!
Just as the girls made it to the front an eagle flew overhead! Which brought everyone to tears, since they always think of their Grandfather when they see eagles.
Aww, here comes the bride, and Brian’s tears.
The little flower girl hadn’t thrown any flowers as she walked down the aisle, so she made up for it as she sat. What a cutie!
Even though Sierra’s dad couldn’t be there, they remembered him and missed him dearly.
Sierra spent so much time on these centerpiece bottles! So classy, beautiful and pretty!
A sweet little fishing boat and sea otters were out on the bay to welcome the new couple to their reception!
R&R entertainment was there!
The couple walked out on the lawn for a few moments of peace…
And then the boys sneaked up on them! What a crew!
Sierra just laughed! And then claimed him for her own!
When they came inside, they had their first dance!
And then started the feast! Brian’s Brother, Chris, runs the Catering with the Alaska Pacific University students… and they did a fantastic taco bar! Thats the way to this photographers heart!
Through the toasts, there were tears of love, hearty belly laughs, stories remembered, and a whole bunch of well wishes for Brian and Sierra!
The cupcake bar looked absolutely delicious!
The king and queen! The perfect way to display the rings!
Chris, Brian’s Brother, gave an unusual toast! he passed out the family’s traditional anise cookies and toasted the bride and groom with cookies!
And the party really kicked off, with R&R entertainment leading the way!
Brian’s niece got in her dance with her uncle too!
Sierra and Brian!
As the rain came down, we took a moment to take a break from the party, and took a walk down to the ocean for some pretty photos!
Love those raindrops!
I love this one! 🙂
Love this Alaskan girl with her extra tuffs! You can really see the raindrops with this one!
And many thanks to Amanda! My fearless second shooter for the day!
