Weddings at Montecito Country Club-Josh and Chrystie say "I do"

October was a beautiful time for weddings here in Santa Barbara. And such a beautiful weekend at the Montecito Country Club for Josh and Chrystie's wedding. I have had a chance to spend some time with this couple and there is no doubt for their love for each other.

Josh's eyes were not the only ones welling up during the ceremony. I was getting a bit emotional behind the lens when I saw how Josh was looking at Chrystie.
