Wedding: Joanna and David


I had the absolute pleasure of photographing the wedding of this lovely couple in June. Look familiar? You may recall their engagement photos ;)


Never know when you'll need a swiss army knife... let's just make sure the earrings don't impale the bride. Consider this a necessity for every wedding photographer's bag, along with 3 safety pins, 5 bobby pins, 2 extra batteries and 2 extra SD cards. :)


The lovely bride arrives!






Yes, it's possible. Add one of the people who set them up :)






A poem!





After their first kiss as a Mr. & Mrs.!














Best wishes and congratulations!


Engagement: Joanna and David


I'm sorry, does it get classier than this? 

I met Joanna through All Angels Church just over a year ago. She is a delight. So of course I was *so* excited to photograph engagement photos for her and her fiancé, David.


We started in the sanctuary, where David fell in love with Joanna. 
Right there, where they're sitting.
(There's some disagreement who was on the left and who was on the right - just go with it.)



From there, we went outside, to the sidewalk right next to the entrance - 


where David had proposed a few short weeks ago!


No shoot is complete without some middle-of-the-avenue shots, of course...


Congratulations and best wishes to the happy couple :)


Cheers!

Brunner/Wiley Wedding Part 7


The mother-son dance warmed things up, and the guests took it from there :)



Can you believe I got that shot? Me neither :)





The football is the small yellow smudge at the top of the tall tree in the second shot (right, above).




Cowboy boots abound - cupid shuffle to cha cha slide and back to country...


I'll finish this out tomorrow, for real. Just a few still lives you have to see!

Missed part 6? Why'dja do that? ;)

Brunner/Wiley Wedding Part 4


You know the shot you want to get, and the moment you realize you didn't get it? I've been going through that this week. Then I went back to my files today and find that I *did* get it, above. You don't get those moments every day, friends - what you thought was lost was never lost at all. 

I've added a few gems from the ceremony below. I'll be trying to keep myself to a theme each day for the rest of the week. If all goes well, we'll have some wedding party shots ready tomorrow...




People loved this, still laughing as the flower girls finish their walk down the aisle :)



I'm realizing that I love epic photography. 
I want the Moment, 
the expansiveness of the church where all lines lead to and focus on 
the bride, 
making her entrance. 

If only I'd shot this in manual. How'd we get down to ISO 1600 when we're at 5.6? C'mon. Open it up.
