MATANUSKA GLACIER WEDDING SHOOT!

Here is another amazing image from Sheryl and Rob's wedding. I will apologize now, there will be a few more from this wedding! When we do destination weddings (especially this far away), we normally have multiple shoots with the couple. And Sheryl and Rob took us to some beautiful locations!

On our last day in Alaska, we all traveled to Matanuska Glacier. It was amazing and did not seem real when we arrived. It was so weird because the temperature was about 70 when then sun was out, then we had hats and gloves when the sun went behind the clouds. We all got to experience walking on the glacier (her bridesmaids were there as well and also helped with the shoot!).

As you can see, we are not on the "ice" part of the glacier for this. This was the last shot before we left to pack. This is exactly what you would see when walking to the glacier. Lucky for us, lighting was perfect for this spot on our hike back. I love the hints of color from the flowers in the foreground. And the glacier itself may seem tiny here, but was giant in person.

Sheryl and Rob both hiked with their dress and suit to the glacier. They changed right on the ice. There were a few tours walking around, but they didn't mind! Then they kept everything on for the entire hike too! They were rock stars! This was not a bad way to end our journey to Alaska to capture this wonderful couples wedding!

And thank you to Shery's ladies for helping with the dress!
