Max & Sarah – Villa Montara Wedding

I first met Max when we were both 16 years old, in our awkward teenage prime. He loved silly adventures, make believe, and had a sense of humor unlike anyone I had encountered in my short life — therefore, we were fast friends. Fast forward 12 years — we lost touch somewhere after high school, and since then so much of life has happened to both of us. Max moved to Japan and became a teacher, where one spring under the cherry blossoms, he met Sarah. And as the fate would have it, I had since become a wedding photographer — bringing our paths to cross once again. The universe is quite the snarky, mischievous gal.

And so, Max & Sarah were married surrounded by salty sea air and the closest of their friends & family. She wore her grandmother’s dress & crown, and he couldn’t peel his eyes off her for a moment. The day couldn’t have been more perfect – cozy overcast vibes during the day, with a sunset that set my heart on fire.
