I have to admit it- I’m a sucker for a good love story, and sometimes the simplest stories can also be the sweetest.  Kate and Nick are high school sweethearts.  In my nine years as a wedding photographer, I’ve only photographed a handful of high school sweethearts, but each and every time I am struck by the love– not just between the couple (after all, ALL of my couples are in love!), but between the families as well.  The marriage of high school sweethearts is the official blending of two different families that have thought of themselves as family already for years.  There are no awkward moments that always happen when two groups that know nothing about one another get together; rather, there is simply an outpouring of love and commitment and a reiteration that while things are finally “official”, they couple has been such a huge part of each other’s lives through the entirety of their adult lives.

Kate and Nick were married at the beautiful Playa Fiesta Hotel- here are a few of my faves from the day:
