Their ceremony was sentimental yet unmistakably them, held in the gardens just outside of the Lodge at Malibou Lake.
Sunset Portraits in the Gardens and by the Lake
During cocktail hour, we took advantage of the golden light and lakeside views for sunset portraits by the water. On our way, we explored the far sides of the garden, making for a cinematic and documentary-style portrait session, truly capturing the magic of the day before the couple rejoined their party for cocktail hour.
