Joel & Linda | Yosemite Valley

If you’ve ever had the chance to visit Yosemite National Park, you’ll probably agree that it’s one of the most majestic places on earth. Towering trees and cascading landscapes framed by spectacular monoliths– It’s one of my favorite places to visit, and probably one of the more magical places to have a wedding. For Joel and Linda, Yosemite felt like the quintessential  setting to celebrate their love for each other since the great outdoors has been so passionately woven into their story. In my experience, to be moved, often we must be still in places that invite stillness. Yosemite is one of those places that invites stillness and deep breaths, adventure and groundedness. What a gift to be invited into that, to be invited to document their love story with such a backdrop as this.Thanks so much to the vendor team that worked hard to put on such a fun and meaningful event for Joel and Linda, and thanks to my wonderful 2nd shooter Ash Gardner for all her help!
