Jessica + Scott {married}

You might want to grab a cup of coffee or your beverage of choice for this one. Sit back, and take a peek at Jessica and Scott’s amazing New York wedding. Trust me, it’s a good one!

We met Jessica and Scott at the historic Plaza Hotel, where they were getting ready for their big day.

Jessica, reading a note from Scott before their first look.

Need I state the obvious? Jessica is a classic beauty.

Scott, the handsome groom opening his gift from Jessica. I’m pretty sure he likes it!

Getting set up for their first-look on the Plaza’s gorgeous marble staircase. No peeking, Scott!

Love, love, love this moment.

The Plaza is adjacent to Central Park, so we ventured out for some portraits.

Wow! We didn’t exactly have the place to ourselves. Although, you’d never know it from the portraits we were able to strategically capture of Scott and Jessica as we made our way through beautiful Central Park.

You can see the Plaza in the background of these next two images.

After working our way through Central Park, we headed to The Wainwright Inn for Jessica and Scott’s lakeside ceremony and reception.

Scott included a photo of his father in his boutonniere.

Scott seeing Jessica make her way down the aisle. So sweet.

Mr. and Mrs. Malish!!

This might be my favorite image of the day.

I loved the soft color palette, and all of the beautiful details.

What an amazing opportunity to travel to New York to document Jessica and Scott’s wedding. It was such an adventure making our way through the streets of New York with Scott and Jessica, before heading to the lush grounds of the historic Wainwright Inn. They planned the most beautiful wedding, that we felt honored to be a part of.

We didn’t meet Jessica and Scott until their wedding day, but upon meeting them both, I discovered right away what sincere, sweet people they are. And it’s plain to see how head-over-heels in love they are with each other! Congratulations Scott and Jessica! Thank you for sharing your celebration with us!

Megan + Stahl {married}

This note from Megan’s mom, written in 2005, was in Megan’s little antique Cinderella tin that holds her hair pins. How fitting and sweet is this?

Any bride that lets her 5-year old niece style her hair for her wedding day is super cool in my book.

I love this couple! Down-to-earth, super silly, madly in love, and as genuine as can be. Megan and Stahl tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony at Vista West Ranch with their friends and family. It was such a happy occasion, that was made even more special by the fact that they will be welcoming a baby boy into their family this Fall. That’s going to be one lucky little boy to have such awesome parents. I can’t wait to meet the little guy!

Congratulations Megan and Stahl!!
