Nicole and Grant, September 20th 2008

Lincoln and had the opportunity to take a little field trip down to Bend, Oregon this weekend to photograph the wedding celebration of Grant and Nicole. This fabulous couple was married at Aspen Hall, a lovely park and reception area that served as a perfectly romantic setting for their end of summer, early fall wedding. Nicole and Grant, Lincoln and I are so happy for you two:) Congratulations and best wishes!!!

P.s. I heart this photo. This is Grant and Nicole’s first kiss after walking up the aisle – their 2nd officially married kiss. I love the sincerity and the intimacy of this moment.
