AMOS AND CARA

Meet Amos and Cara McPherson.

Amos is the son of a dear friend of mine who has been much like a sister to me over the past 6 years. She has taught my children, taught me, and given more to our family than she will probably ever know. Charlotte is definitely one of a kind.



I was ever so humbled when she asked if I would help in capturing this special moment in her family's life.

The day couldn't have been more beautiful for a wedding. The weather was perfect, the location surreal, and the love radiant.

The guys began the processional by lighting torches on either side of the "aisle". The wedding party followed, one at a time....

.....until time for the bride.

Both of her parents escorted her down to meet her husband.
























After sharing vows and communion, Amos and Cara DANCED back up the aisle, their happiness overflowing.












Cara comes from an Italian family.

And Amos comes from a mountain family who are spread all the way from California to Virginia to Germany.

Katie was very much pleased to make the aquaintance of Amber, Charlotte's oldest daughter and a baroque violinist in Germany.

Neither Amos or Cara had seen the rings that the other had chosen for them until time to put them on during the ceremony. Amos' held a beautiful inscription from his bride and Cara's was completely designed by Amos and crafted from both family's heirloom jewelry.

I loved Cara's burnt red wedding dress and the casual brown jackets and sweaters that the rest of the party wore.

After some wedding party portraits, some barbeque, and some cheesecake, the newlyweds spent the rest of the evening basking in each other's company and dancing the night away.

Now Cara is back in California, serving her country (she is in the Army) and Amos is studying for his EMT exam. But, rest assured they are counting down the minutes til they can be together again.

Congratulations, Amos and Cara.

Thanks for letting us share in your joy. We pray blessings on you and your families as you begin a new life together, standing on the Rock being joined together in Him.
