Abigail & Micah – Mukogawa – Spokane, Washington

I loved photographing Abigail and Micah’s wedding.  I mean, I love all the weddings I shoot, but I really loved this wedding, for a bunch of different reasons.  For one, it’s really difficult to take a bad picture of Abigail and Micah.  Not only are they extremely attractive people, but they are so connected, so very much in love.  Throughout the wedding day, they touched each other.  Sometimes they gave each other furtive glances.  Other times, one just gazed at the other.  They whispered things into each other’s ear, and smiled.  I loved photographing all this, not because it makes my job easier (though it does), but because it is so much fun to watch.

Another thing I loved about this wedding was the first dance — it was one of my favorite ever, and I’m sorry to say the pictures don’t do it justice.  The pictures don’t capture the music, Carlos Gardel with Argentinian accordions, nor the bold, graceful movements of the tango they danced.  It was elegant and graceful and sexy and fun.

The wedding also had an extra bonus for me.  Last summer, I photographed Abigail’s sister’s wedding (you can see Katie and Bret’s wedding photographs here), and before that, I photographed her other sister’s wedding (you can see Danielle and Ryan’s wedding photographs here).  It was great to see everyone again.  I almost feel like a member of the family.  Unfortunately, there are no more sisters, but they all did indulge me in an Essential Moments Photography Alumni picture:

Add it all up, and the whole day was amazing.  So much fun.  I’ll leave you with a couple more of my favorites images from the day, but be sure to go here to see the rest of the photographs of Abigail and Micah’s wedding.
