Cody and Mindy are celebrating five years of marriage this weekend (June 18th to be precise), and I was so honored to photograph this milestone for them.

I first got to know Mindy a little over a year ago through this wonderful thing called The Rising Tide Society.  She is a fellow photographer, so we've shot weddings together on occasion over the past year, and she's become someone I feel blessed to call a friend. Macaroons are one of Mindy's very favorite things, so naturally they made an appearance at their photoshoot.  Because what celebration would be complete without macaroons from the always delightful Pistacia Vera? You should know, wine of any kind is not Cody's favorite thing, so when they toast, Mindy cracks open the bubbly and Cody pops open a Mountain Dew.  Mindy did make him try a little sip of hers again, just to be SURE he didn't like it.  He was less than impressed, and opted to stick with his Dew.
