Pastel Wedding at Empire Mine State Park

Couple

Emily & David

Their Story

Photographer’s Remarks: “Emily and Dave’s wedding at Empire Mine State Park in Nevada City, outside of was stunningly beautiful. It looks like fairy land: everything was green, awash in golden sunlight and ethereal. I am so over the moon for this venue that I cannot wait to return. Just a word of warning: if you hire me to be your wedding photographer (person reading this), you best put an hour of portraits on your schedule because I could take portraits there for DAYS and not exhaust all the awesome out of it. It is GORGEOUS. “Emily is a warm fuzzy. She is the warmest of warm fuzzies. The minute you meet her, she envelops you with these large, gracious, giving eyes and she brings you in and makes you feel loved and welcome and fabulous. “Dave is hardly any different: grinning, congenial, extremely smart, and with a snarky fun wit. You can see it in their wedding photos: it was seriously difficult to get a photo of Emily not laughing. “These two people are so rad, so loving, and so secure in themselves, their faith and their friendships that they are nothing short of inspirational. They are giving and gorgeous and I know that only extreme happiness is coming their way because they ask for nothing in return except laughter and smiles. They deserve every bit of their joy and I feel extremely lucky to have met a real life warm fuzzy and better yet, to have photographed her wedding.”
