Wedding June 5, 2010 at Wesley United Methodist Church

Katie and John’s Wedding turned out wonderful. It was my last wedding before my ten-year wedding anniversary vacation, which I’ll be posting pictures of soon. The weather turned out beautiful and I arrived at the church early to set up. The bride was running behind so I took pictures of everyone scrambling to get ready and church decorations and flowers. We got the images with the bridesmaids, and if I remember correctly, some of the family pictures with the bride. We moved the grooms session to after the ceremony. The ceremony happened perfectly as rehearsed (as far as I could tell). The bride’s father pulled me aside and asked to me get extra images of the bride’s mom because he wanted to make a special album of her as a surprise. I thought that was romantic.

The reception was held at The Hampton Inn in Winchester.  The music was provided by Blue Moon Productions and the lovely cake was made by a family friend. As soon as the introductions were finished, we quickly cut the cake because it was leaning a bit and they were afraid it might not make til after dinner. Next to the cake was a beautiful display of candies and small cakes which tasted wonderful. It seemed like everyone had a wonderful time dancing and partying the night away as you can see from the pictures below. Thanks Katie and John for letting me be apart of your wedding. I enjoyed every minute of your special day.

Engagement Session at Stone Manor Country Club

I met Heather and David back in March and they booked me for their September 24, 2011 wedding at Stone Manor Country Club. Back in June we decided to do their engagement session at the same location. I’d never been there before and was excited to see it after seeing pictures of the location on Facebook. I arrived early so I could scope out locations before the couple arrived. It was a beautiful location. It would be easy to get beautiful images there.

I knew Heather and David wanted images that were more artistic and fun so I did my best to avoid anything “traditional”. I snuck in a few, I knew mom would appreciate it. My favorite picture was the one with the colorful umbrella. They asked for something wacky and I did my best to deliver.

I had a fun time with them and can’t wait for their wedding day.
