Of course, rain it did. And a mountain rain at that, forcing everyone to run inside mere minutes before the ceremony as the skies unloaded. But, Kristen and Suzanne had already made their vows to each other privately, surrounded only by the fall foliage and the peaceful scenery and we three photographer/videographers - removing all nerves and allowing them simply to soak up their time with family, both blood and chosen alike. 

Once the bad weather rolled through, the skies gifted us a beautiful - if chilly - evening for their Mountain View ceremony which was equal parts heartfelt and hilarious. Getting to experience their deep and genuine affection for and from their loved ones made the evening all the more cozy, bested only by a cuddly portrait session in their vintage getaway car.
