Jessica + Chase

They were married before sunset on October 15th at Red Rock Crossing by Rev. Andrew Murphy.



Jessica looked gorgeous.



I love that she went barefoot!

The kiss.



More kissing. I love this photo -- Chase held Jessica for a long time so I was able to get a whole passionate series in front of Cathedral Rock.



Warning: I'm about to rant ... Wedding days don't always go smoothly, even after all the time spent dreaming and planning. I think people sometimes forget that weddings are supposed to be about the couple getting married. Jessica and Chase's wedding was delayed by family arriving late, they had unexpected (uninvited) guests, and while they were creating memories during their wedding portraits, they were being hurried and harried. It created a lot of unnecessary angst. It makes me even prouder of them and their beautiful, beautiful photographs because of the circumstances. End of rant.



I wish Jessica and Chase a long and wonderful partnership, friendship, and marriage. I hope their photographs remind them of the deep love that they have for each other.
