Here’s a peak at  some of my favorite photos from Michelle & Nick’s beautiful wedding in the Santa Cruz mountains.  I photographed the stunning bride and her dazzling family and bridesmaids at her parents’ private residence in Boulder Creek. And then on to  St. Michael’s Church and the Brookdale Inn. The flowers were beautifully created by Laura at Sweeley’s Design.
