One can always plan and hope for an incredible sunrise but the weather and location doesn’t always cooperate. Too much cloud cover, no clouds whatsoever, the suns behind a mountain, there are just so many variables that can make the sunrise less than what you were dreaming of. But for Ian and Linda the stars aligned and their ceremony turned out extraordinary.

These two lovebirds decided to have their first look amidst the golden light of sunrise at the world famous Tunnel View viewpoint in Yosemite. While normally a crowded spot, not many get out of bed this early so we had the place virtually to ourselves.
