Mark and Jamie had the most beautiful, intimate, beach wedding I've ever been a part of. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves:
Her sister helping with the dress...
I love Mark's huge smile as he sees Jamie for the first time :)
While I was thinking of the next pose Jamie excitedly asked, "Do you want us to lay on the ground?" That's when I knew I loved her LOL
The Ceremony overlooked the ocean.... soooo gorgeous!
One of my favorites of the day...
Jamie is a corporate event coordinator by day so I knew she'd have amazing details... but she really went above and beyond my expectations with the most adorable details and thoughtful touches... all done by hand!
I'm so glad we got to take advantage of the beautiful sunset light...
I'm also glad they were up for, "Just one more portrait, promise!" I couldn't resist this awesome wall behind the railing :)
I loved their first dance song... click the slideshow below to have a listen :)
