Happy Father's to all those Dad's out there. To be a Father is one thing but to be a Dad is an entirely different picture. This of course is my opinion, however it takes a lot more love, care and time to be a Dad. This "first look with Dad" is sure one to NOT miss. In 12 years of shooting weddings this one is the BEST. This is what photography is about. Capturing emotion true and raw. I realize it can't always be this raw but when it is... its huge. Looking ahead 10-15 years I can completely say this will be Ryan and Jayla... (I'll be there sobbing as well). Emily and Daryl thank you for allowing us to be the ones to capture this moment.
Enjoy.













































This necklace is super special...Alyssa's Mom had it made out of her wedding ring from Alyssa's Dad
