Kingsburg Ranch Wedding
Laura and Raymond’s wedding at Kingsburg Ranch this past May was a sight to behold. Last September, I captured their lovely engagement photos at Shaver Lake. Their session not only captured the essence of Laura and Raymond’s love but also served as a prelude to their enchanting wedding day at Kingsburg Ranch. The photos immortalized the beginning of their journey towards marriage, preserving the memories of a beautiful and significant moment in their lives.
On their wedding day, Laura and Raymond got ready in separate houses before making their way to St. Patrick’s Catholic Church for their ceremony. The stellar wedding planning ensured that everything flowed seamlessly, making it an unforgettable event for the couple and guests. Following the ceremony, the couple and their guests gathered at Kingsburg Ranch to celebrate their special day.
Due to my pregnancy, I was unable to be the primary photographer at Laura and Raymond’s wedding. However, I made sure to select an incredibly talented associate photographer to step in and capture the beautiful moments of their special day.
See some of my favorite moments from their beautiful day
Laura and Raymond first met in 2015 through a set-up by Laura’s cousin. The two were both 21 years old at the time, and it was love at first sight. Laura was living with three female roommates, all of whom had boyfriends. She felt left out and asked her cousin if he had any friends he could introduce her to. Raymond’s name came up, and a photo exchange between the two established that they were both interested in each other. With Laura’s approval, her cousin passed on her number to Raymond, and the rest is history. As Laura puts it, “the stars aligned,” and they’ve been together ever since.
How He Asked
Having dated for a while, Raymond decided to pop the question to Laura in a grand gesture. He planned his 29th birthday celebration at Toca Madera Winery and invited close family and friends. Laura thought it was weird that they were having a big celebration when Raymond would be turning 30 the following year. However, she went along with the plan. Upon arrival, she was distracted, and Raymond went ahead and arranged his surprise proposal. As she walked down the walkway, she found Raymond waiting for her, surrounded by their family and friends. It was a touching moment that Laura will remember for the rest of her life.
Laura and Raymond’s love for each other is only matched by their love for adventure and trying new things. The couple loves traveling, and their honeymoon was planned for a road trip across the United States. They also love spending time with their two golden retrievers, watching anime, and trying out new TV shows. They’re always up for an adventure and exploring new horizons.
Laura and Raymond, thank you for choosing my business to be part of your special day. I am immensely grateful for your understanding and for allowing me to choose a talented associate photographer to capture every precious moment. The photos that were captured are truly stunning. I‘m honored to have had the opportunity to showcase the magic of your wedding day. Your love story is a testament to the power of true love, and it was an absolute pleasure to witness the depth of your connection and the joy that radiated from both of you. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness, adventure, and continued love, as you embark on this beautiful journey together.
