Wedding: Craig & Jessica | Lake Oak Meadows, Temecula, CA | Analisa Joy Photography | Upland, CA Photographer

When I met Craig and Jessica, I knew that this was going to have the best time being their photographer. Our first consultation was filled with effortless conversation and I felt like I was enjoying lunch with old friends. When we met again for their engagement session, I remember bragging to my husband that this was the funnest couple to photograph. They made my stomach hurt because we were laughing so hard. If we weren’t laughing, we were singing or poking fun at someone. Then came the wedding day and I’m not going to lie, I was a little sad. I didn’t want this wedding journey to end because Craig and Jessica gradually became one of my all time favorite couples. I LOVE hanging out with these two. Their wedding was everything I anticipated and more. It was sweet, beautiful, hilarious, and so much fun. These two are always the life of the party. What I loved most about Craig and Jessica is their genuine friendship. They are so sincere and their love is evident in all that they do. In the world of trying to perfect the best photos for social media/Pinterest, I have witnessed weddings where the priorties are more about capturing the perfect wedding photo and less about the celebration of becoming husband and wife. I love photos, but I want all my couples to enjoy the moments… the memories that aren’t staged or scheduled. When those are captured that is when you get the perfect wedding photos.
