A January rain had washed the skies earlier that week. As Saturday approached, the gentle winds parted away the rain clouds to reveal the beautiful Southern California sky. Gazing out the windows May checked her hair and made sure the details were in place. Chris was in the hotel room with his groomsmen. As he finished putting on his suit, he smiled and thought “This is going to be a great day.”
Chris and May were married this past weekend at the Mitten Building in Redlands. They are two of the most loving and giving people that one could hope to meet. Chris serves as one of the pastors at Canaan in San Jose and May is a Marriage and Family Therapist. Together they have touched the lives of so many people and it was so wonderful seeing everyone come together to celebrate their wedding day =)


What’s a wedding without a pair of Chucks? =)
Having some fun with his groomsmen before the bridesmaids arrived.

May getting some finishing touches before going to see her handsome groom.

With sunset quickly approaching, we headed for some portraits at the old Redlands Train Station.


Doing the Tebow =p









Chris and May are both Pastor’s Kids, so it was so wonderful seeing their families and friends worshipping God together on their wedding day.


Their first kiss!
After the ceremony, we headed downstairs for the reception.
Check out the cute cake toppers that one of their bridesmaid made =)




One of the cute props from their photobooth.
Having their first dance as man and wife.

While the guests were dancing away, we snuck out the back door to play with some sparklers. Here, they are drawing a umm… peach!
Getting a final send off by their friends and family =)
Chris and May, thank you so much for allowing me to be part of your wedding day =) Your wedding was a great testimony to God’s faithfulness and work in your lives. Have a wonderful time in Australia and New Zealand!
