Jeff and Deborah share such a sweet love story. They were “set-up” by a mutual church friend and though nothing happened for almost a year, they finally shared their first date on the tennis courts of Biola University, where he also proposed!

Their wedding was one of those where so many people have a hand in making it all come together, that it results in such a fun celebration of love, family and friends.

I’ll be honest here…I was a little nervous about shooting indoors since my experience is in natural light photography and I pretty much despise the way flash lighting looks in photos, but I was pleasantly surprised by the results! (I think it helps that I wasn’t the “official” photographer and didn’t have the pressure of getting everything perfect!).

This is one of my favorite shots of the entire day!

I just love the way she looks at him – so much in love!

Congrats Jeff & Deborah! The love you share is so rare and I know that your life together will bless all of those around you!
