Mexico City Lovers

In the neighborhood of Coyoacan in Mexico City, adolescents gather in the main plaza every night of the week to share affection--something they can't really get away with at home. I found these young lovers last weekend near a fountain in the warm honey light that is the sunset in this grand, polluted city.

Tonia & Justin wedding reception

After getting engagement photos done in Paris, an intimate wedding in Mexico and a honeymoon in India and Bali, Tonia and Justin returned to Girdwood, Alaska to share a wedding reception with dear friends and family at home.

It was a beautiful evening at the Double Musky Inn--full of good cheer, warm conversation and dancing amidst mid-winter's chill. I can honestly say that Tonia and Justin provided the most lively, passionate dancing I've seen at a wedding reception. Cheers you two!

Below are a few of my favorite photos from the celebration but scroll down to the bottom and click play to see a slide show of the entire evening (and be sure to turn the music up)!

Rachael & Jim - Anchorage wedding

Rachael and Jim's ceremony and reception was held in their hillside home in early December during that weekend Anchorage was visited by an unpleasant mix of rain and wind, slush and ice. This mal-weather (not a word, I know) outside created a coziness inside that housed the lovely mix of sincerity and emotion this gathering awakened among close family and friends.

I'm grateful for getting to be a part of the day. Here are some of my favorite images.
