Brittney + Fred's Wedding | Red Hawk Golf and Resort Sparks, NV

July 20th, 2019. It was a beautiful summer day to get married. Kona the handsome golden retriever watched on as his mom got ready for one of the biggest days of her life. Excitement grew when Brittney put on her gorgeous dress. She was a stunning bride and everyone’s eyes lit up when they saw her. She then walked down the stairs to have her first look with her Dad. It was such a sweet moment.

Meanwhile, glasses clinked as Fred and his groomsmen toasted. After everyone was sharply dressed, it was time to head out for portraits and there wasn’t a shortage of laughter. As time grew closer to the ceremony, Fred’s excitement also grew to watch his bride walk down the aisle.

The ceremony arrived and everyone had huge smiles as Kona, AKA fur baby, proudly walked down the aisle, between both moms. Can I just take a moment to say how great it is to have your dog in your ceremony? They truly are the best. And then the moment everyone was waiting for arrived and Brittney glowed as she walked down the isle by her father’s side. One of my favorite parts of every wedding is seeing the groom’s reaction to his bride, and the look in Fred’s eyes was everything.

After many magical romantics portraits, both heartfelt and hilarious speeches, and lots of dancing, the time came for the sparkler exit. I always recommend doing a fun exit or photo op with your guests as a last fun event on your day. The sparklers were lit and the beautiful newly weds ran through the warm, crackling light as their loved ones cheered on.

Thank you, Brittney and Fred for having me capture your special day, and for continuing to have me photograph your growing family. It’s truly an honor. Here’s to more amazing chapters in your love story!
