MURRIETA, Calif. (WTVR) – Jim Zetz knows he will not be alive long enough to walk his 11-year-old daughter down the aisle on her wedding day — whenever it may be. The 62-year-old California father is dying of pancreatic cancer.

A Los Angeles photographer, who took portraits of the Zetz family, was so moved by the love between Zetz and her daughter, she organized a surprise backyard wedding to give Zetz the opportunity share that moment with young Josie, according to a report on KTLA.com.
“One day (you) wake up and realize you’re given the opportunity to change someone’s life for the better. You get an idea, don’t think twice and run with it,” photographer Lindsey Natzic Villatoro wrote about the experience.
