Weddings!

I love weddings!  Ever since I was in my own I tend to think they're just about one of the best things that can happen in life!


I am so honored and excited to be shooting the wedding of an old friend and her fiancé in just over two weeks!  They are such a sweet and happy couple and I wish them all the best in the world.






When Nathaniel and I shot our first wedding together I was really nervous.  Although I was very familiar with shooting formal events I knew that the 'big day' is always different.  And on top of that, I was working for family.  So there was a lot of pressure to do well.  The lesson I have taken away is don't work for family.  Everyone was wonderful, the wedding was beautiful, the bride was stunning... but I was so stressed out about letting down my family that it was hard to step back and relax.


I'm really excited to shoot this wedding.  I don't feel that stress or pressure, just total happiness for the couple getting married.  And this time around I have some actual 'wedding' experience under my belt so I know what to look for.  I can't wait!!!
