When Kari's mom, Diane, contacted me about shooting her wedding on New Year's Eve in Los Angeles, I was OVER THE MOON. Kari and Reid are incredible people separately, and together they make one bomb couple-it's clear as soon as you see them together that their love is genuine. The couple even included their adorable dog, Marcy (obviously I'm excited when there's animals involved).  

Their elegant wedding at Carandolet House could not have been more incredible, plus it was AWESOME for this Ohio girl to wear short sleeves in the middle of winter. This was my first NYE wedding, and I honestly can't think of a better way to bring in the new year than starting your life as a couple surrounded by family and friends.  

Congratulations, Kari and Reid Anderson!
