“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” James 1:17

During our first meeting over coffee, our engagement session up at Lake Arrowhead, and all our little conversations in between, I’ve seen glimpses of the incredible people that Rafael and Athar are. But nothing quite gives you a window into a couple’s life like their wedding day. For Rafael and Athar, it was a day that friends and family came from across the world to share in. No distance was too far to travel to celebrate with this couple. A day covered in love and abundantly blessed by the God whom they chose to sing praises to during their ceremony and glorify for their relationship. From conversations at cocktail hour to the toasts given, one thing was apparent: the lives Rafael and Athar have touched are numerous. It was a beautiful day honoring two beautiful souls.

Rafael and Athar, your lives have already impacted so many; I cannot wait to see how God will use you now that you are one. You make an amazing team! Thank you for allowing me a window into your lives and the delight of having you in front of my camera.
