LYNDSEY & KOBY: LOS ANGELES WEDDING

I consider my business to be a boutique kind of business.  I take on a select number of clients and being the perfectionist that I am, I put all my energy into building relationships with those clients.  Last fall, I photographed a wedding for a bride I didn’t have the opportunity to meet before her wedding day.  This was a first for me as I typically get to meet my brides beforehand, but by the end of the day, I felt like I was part of the family.  So when I got an email from that bride’s sister earlier this year to tell me she was engaged, I was over the moon excited.  Because the Waite family feels like my own.  And every time you’re with them, they welcome you in and make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Lyndsey and Koby, thank you for choosing me to be the one to document your beautiful wedding!  There was so much love in the air that day and it’s a testament to the kind of people you are.  I’ve not only fallen in love with the two of you, but with your families as well.  Thank you so much for trusting my vision and making me feel like family.  I can’t wait to see you both at the next wedding…hopefully sooner than later (:

Ashley, it never ceases to amaze me how much talent you have. You did such a beautiful job photographing all the special moments of Lyndsey and Koby’s wedding day. Everything about your shots are perfect. Love it!

Victoria Waite

I thought you did an awesome job as photographer! I made the chocolates that you have pictured in the basket. Is there any chance I could get a copy of it and use it on my website? I will credit you with the photo and even link your website, if you’d like. Let me know. :)

Love your creativity with the portraits! Great job! And isn’t it great to have your husband shooting along side of you? I love it when the bride tells me how much she loved a shot and tim took it, haha. Keep up the awesome work, Ashley and Jeff. You guys rock.
