Over the weekend we needed to find a bride to model for us very quickly. How quickly? We needed someone that could be ready and on the photo shoot in less than 2 hours! Impossible you say? Not really… A quick Facebook post produced a willing heart, Samantha! She is one of API’s brides getting...

Her family had flown in from the UK and I couldn’t be happier with the sound of it - British accents, British punk for the reception, British jokes, British vocabulary, British all around. This was a fun wedding! Jordanna and Aaron, and their closest friends and family had a blast dancing the night away in...
