A + J: Glen Oaks Big Sur Wedding

As a photographer himself, J told me that the photos meant a lot to them. One important way that they chose to personalize their day was documenting parts of the day themselves - I arrived to see him standing on the bridge capturing epic landscape shots above the trees, and loved watching the way that J would photograph his beautiful bride, while A would in turn have the sweetest smile as she lit up in his presence. As luck would have it, their day was also full of some of the most incredible weather and light after a storm the night before. They had been worried about the rain, but the skies cleared up and we got to watch the waves overtake the beach as the last light dipped below the horizon.

There are so many great things to say about Lynn and her husband Keith.

First, I want to highlight Lynn's professionalism and responsiveness. I can only imagine how busy she is considering the amount of pictures she continues to upload, but she never made us feel that we had to wait or we were next in line. She always took the time to answer questions immediately and had a very welcoming presence about her ever since we first chatted on the phone. My husband and I evolved our initial plans quite extensively since we had first hired Lynn and she was very patient and flexible through it all. When it came to the wedding day, she made us feel so relaxed and at ease. I love how she effortlessly made it about us, especially our vision when it came to adding our own photography elements to the photos. My husband is a photographer himself and it was important that we were able to capture some of that into our day. Lynn has an amazing skill with composition, lighting, and posing. We have been so impressed with all the photos and can't stop staring at them. In addition, Keith as our officiant, he blew it out of the water. His unique storytelling style and attention detail made our ceremony so personal and memorable. Both are such amazing souls and I can't express how much they made our day so special. - A+J
