Keith and Catie Wedding, Bakersfield Art Museum, Bakersfield Wedding Photography, Bakersfield Photographer, Artwork, Bakersfield Weddings, J.Michelle Photography

Keith and Catie were such an amazing couple to work with. Their laid-back personalities and trust in us to do our ‘thing’ made our jobs not only enjoyable but creative as well. Catie mentioned to me during our final consultation prior to their wedding day that the art work in the Bakersfield Art Museum was very important to them, so we hatched a plan to incorporate as much artwork as possible in their wedding photos. When Matt and I arrived at the facility we were beyond stoked to be told that we could photograph inside the art gallery (with the exception of no flash) YIPEE! We had a blast utilizing all of the unique artwork surrounding us. My personal favorite was the gallery of phone books. Artists created everything from a shushi piece to someones facial expression out of phone-books, it was beautiful! Their wedding day was lovely, and we very much enjoyed capturing their big day. C&K we know your love for each other is strong, we wish you a lifetime of happiness and love! God Bless your new lives together as a family. Here are some highlights from their Bakersfield Art Museum wedding.

Justin and Kami had a beautiful wedding at the Ventura Yacht Club in June of this year, they were surrounded by many loving family members and friends who traveled to wintess their union. I felt so honored when asked to be their wedding photographer being that I have known Kami and the Jackson family for many years, it was truly a blast to be apart of .
