A Classic Spring Wedding at the Glass House at Nichols Heir
A Spring wedding at The Glass House is always stunning, but Amanda and Jep’s day felt especially meaningful after such a long season of waiting. After being engaged for nearly five years — over 1,800 days — their wedding day was truly a celebration that had been anticipated by everyone who loves them. You could feel it in every moment. This wasn’t just a wedding day, it was the day they had all been waiting for.
Set against the clean, modern beauty of The Glass House at Nichols Heir, their black and white design created such a timeless, elevated feel. With sunshine pouring in all day long, everything felt bright, warm, and full of life — the kind of spring day you dream about.
This beautiful day was captured by my associate photographer, AC Goodman, who documented every moment so intentionally. Alongside her was my content creator Content By Dev, who helped preserve all the behind-the-scenes moments in real time.
One of the most special parts of this Spring wedding at The Glass House was Amanda and Jep’s decision to exchange private vows. We staged a few portraits to set the scene and then completely stepped away, giving them the space to share that moment alone. When they called us back, both of them were in tears — such a quiet, emotional, and deeply personal moment that made the entire day feel even more intentional.
There were also meaningful details woven throughout the day, including Jep’s watch, which belonged to his late father. It was a simple but incredibly powerful way to keep someone so important close to him as he stepped into this new chapter.
The entire morning carried such a peaceful energy. Amanda and her bridesmaids were calm, present, and fully soaking it all in. The bridal suite felt light and joyful, filled with laughter and the kind of support every bride deserves. They were truly the best hype girls from start to finish.
And then there was Sawyer — the absolute star of the day. As he walked down the aisle, he pointed out each familiar face, calling out “Mama! Dada! Grandma!” and had everyone smiling instantly. During family photos, his playful and goofy personality kept things light and fun, making those moments even more memorable.
We ended the evening with the most beautiful sunset portraits. Even though we ran a little later than planned, the timing couldn’t have been better. The sun gave us the dreamiest glow, finishing with a soft sunburst and stunning mountain views that made the perfect ending to an unforgettable day.
Amanda and Jep’s Spring wedding at The Glass House was elegant, emotional, and so full of meaning — a celebration that was absolutely worth the wait.
