When I received the call last year from Jen last year to photograph her wedding in Sandpoint, Idaho I was ecstatic!  I was not only excited for Jen (I have enjoyed a great work relationship with her for many years) but also excited to photograph a wedding in a totally new location!  Sandpoint is a beautiful area in northern Idaho where, in fact, Jen and Ryan met.  Ryan’s family has a house overlooking the lake (which is where the ceremony was held) and the views are absolutely breath-taking!  Jen was absolutely breath-taking as well, and just a great pleasure to photograph and be around.  Ryan is a stand-up guy and truly loves Jen!  Below you will see some of the images from their big day!  Click here to view their wedding slideshow!

Isn’t Jen stunning?!

I love love love her Stephanie James Couture dress and the way it “swooshed”

I love the “reveal!”  So fun!

These two are soo cute together!

I love the colors they chose for their wedding party:

Jen and Ryan decided to attach their wedding rings to something with buoyancy, JUST in case they were to drop their rings on the dock…cute!

The details were super fun!

The food was super yummy!

Now on to the ceremony!

I loved the exchanging of the rings!

After the ceremony, Ryan surprised Jen in showing her that he had inscribed the exact nautical location of where they exchanged their vows.

Heart shaped fireworks were the perfect addition to this 4th of July wedding!

I love the firefighter themed wedding cake!

At the end of the night Jen and Ryan made their grand exit on his family’s boat…
