Sandra's Garden Intimate Wedding: Miguel & Katrina

Covid 19 has brought havoc to our lives. Shoots were canceled one after the other. Big and small businesses are closed. We are all affected. Unexpected and it’s scary!

Miguel and Katrina’s wedding pushed thru. Love WON that day! I was afraid that I’d get a message from them telling me that they had to cancel the wedding. I had to ask two days before if it was still a go. When they said that they decided to go for it amidst the craziness of the world, I was ecstatic. I needed to do something to bring normalcy to my state of mind. Taking pictures of happy moments or a celebration of a milestone has been my go-to to heal a part of me.

It was a small intimate wedding up there in the mountains. The cold air, happy vibe of family and friends were infectious. The universe has a way of listening to my heart’s desire. A wedding such as this one has been my wish. No wedding coordinators. No unnecessary extras. Just family and friends. That day I deeply felt how it was to take pictures of a wedding. Nothing was choreographed or manipulated much. Most of it was real and spontaneous. My photographer’s heart was full. I felt like I was in the right place doing the right thing with the right team and right client.

It felt like HOME.

Sharing with you a few snaps. I hope these photos will make today a little better.

“And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently. And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal. And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed.” ~Kitty O’Meara
