As I mentioned in an earlier post (Something Borrowed, Something Blue), I photographed the wedding of two of my very best friends — the new Wes and Sarah Phillips — not too long ago.

Factoring in the beautiful location at the Powel Crosley Estate in Sarasota, Fla., fantastic weather right on the water, plus a gathering of 111 good people, and you’ve got a recipe for a perfect wedding. The bonus of having a great relationship with the bride and groom didn’t hurt either, as I got all the access I needed and could get away with things I wouldn’t dream of otherwise.

It was easily the hardest — and sometimes most stressful — weekend of work I’ve ever had, but also a tremendous honor to be part of the beginning of the rest of Wes and Sarah’s life together.

But enough rambling — here are some of my favorites from the day. (To see a wider selection, check out the full collection on my main website.)
