We arrived to Andrea's home early in the morning to make sure that we capture the getting ready details. The dress was already set up for photos, we started with the dress while she was getting her hair and make-up done at a different location. After she arrived we were able to capture a few photos of her hair and make-up retouch. Her parents came along to give her their blessing before stepping out side to the beginning of her special day!


The ceremony took place at the Church of Annunciation in Williams CA. Most of her closest family and friends were there for her to be part of a very special ceremony. After the ceremony, we had a few minutes to take photos of her court and friends at the venue. This session is always fun because we take a few photos of the quinceanera along with her chambelanes, damas, friends.


The reception was at a nice hall located in Colusa CA. The Colusa Fairgrounds, as we arrived I noticed that there were a lot beautiful of decorations all over the venue. We were able to take photos of some of the arrangements before everyone else arrived. Everyone had some time to sit down and enjoy the mariachi band playing music before dinner.


After dinner we were able to set some time to take a few photos with her guest. At around 6pm it was time to begin the vals followed by a dace with her parents and a few family members. They also did an great performance during the dance with her court. As we were moving towards the end of the night the dance floor opened up! This was where everyone got up of their seat and joined Andrea to dance with her all night to an unforgettable day! I hope you enjoy the photographs! Share it with family and friends!
