This past weekend I photographed Alphonse and Danica’s wedding in Vancouver, Washington. As most of you know, it’s been very hot here, so the bride decided to get ready at her parents home in Battle Ground, instead of at the church, Our Lady of Lourdes.
It was my first trip to Battle Ground. Until now, it was just a sign on the freeway while driving from Portland to Seattle. I was amazed at how rural it gets so quickly. We were 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver and the community has sprawling fields and farms. I love exploring.
I got to the bride’s home as she was walking in from getting her hair and makeup done. I asked how she was doing and her response was, “nervous”. The house was filled with family, friends, and lots of little ones, including the bride and groom’s own baby, Lillian. As most of Danica’s bridemaids were helping her, one was off to the side getting Lillian dressed. I took a few seconds to grab some images of this precious moment.
