Closing out this year of weddings with an absolute GEM of a couple. Congrats to Shakira & Shawn. They had a bit of a rain scare on their wedding day, but their love and fun could NOT be stopped. I really think that's what held back the rain. Not only was the day amazing but many of the guests like to take photos themselves. So I got to show off the new Fujifilm GFX 100 ii. Thank you for having me and here's to many years of a fantastic marriage. ❤️❤️❤️
