Pete + Leslie, McCloud Guest House Wedding 7-23-11 {McCloud Wedding Photographer}

What's the first thing you think of when you conjure up a picture of a coupla archaeologists? You know you think of old guys with white hair and beards. I do. Imagine my shock to meet this beautiful couple, who are archaeologists with the Forest Service. Ridiculously young and good looking! What a myth buster! They got married Saturday at the McCloud Guest House in a beautiful ceremony. Leslie was totally chill all day -- such a sweet bride. Speaking of sweet, sweet peas were everywhere, along with lush lawn and oaks and an unfettered glimpse of Mt. Shasta through the trees. They entertained us with a wedding game where the bride and groom each hold one of their own shoes and one of their partner's. Standing back to back, they respond to questions like "Whose mother is the best cook?" by raising the appropriate shoe (presumably they can't see each other). Of course, difficulties inevitably arise when opposing shoes are raised and there are lots of surprises. Hilarious little ritual!! I loved being a part of your day and hope you have a fantastic honeymoon.
