Santa Barbara Zoo Wedding : Courtney + Matt

Posted in Photography, Weddings

When we first were e-mailed by Courtney and Matt we got really excited because we have been wanting to shoot a Santa Barbara Zoo wedding for what seems like forever! We looked in to having our own wedding at the Santa Barbara Zoo but, due to the time of year we got married, it just didn’t work for us. So, we were stoked to be able to experience a wedding there (and see the Zoo’s new baby giraffe!). And let’s not overlook the fact that Courtney and Matt are stunning human beings (both inside and out) and we had a killer time at both their engagement session and on their wedding day. It was an especially good time because Matt is friends with one of our past grooms, and it always makes photographing weddings a little more fun when we get to see our other couples at their friends’ weddings! :)

The Groom is trying to release some very reluctant butterflies from that box! They both have butterflies on them! We think it was so cool that the butterflies stuck to the Bride and Groom for so long. Look! It is a lovely group of people hanging out! Santa Barbara Zoo Wedding photographer.
