The arch of swords ceremony for weddings is an old English and American custom, which gives a symbolic pledge of loyalty to the newly married couple and ensures the couple's safe transition into their new life together. I was honored to photograph this special ceremony for the first time and capture their love for one another on their wedding day. Congratulations Kimberly ... Garrett!

Michael and I just dropped everything and looked at all the pictures-the hundreds and hundreds of them. We are elated! The moments you captured, the intricacies you involved, the vibrance and quality you produced . . . you far surpassed everything we had imagined. In the midst of all your brilliance, you even somehow still managed to take those requested shots and poses we talked about in our consultation. Girl, you made us look goooood! On top of all that, you were such a pleasure to work with-so warm and easy and just plain fun! We are so thankful for you and your talent. No one else could have been so spectacular! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!

Can't thank you enough!

Filled with joy,
Jacqueline ... Michael
