Managed to finish up this section tonight-yippee!! The mother of the groom MADE the huppa entirely by hand. Isn’t it so beautiful??!!Loved photographing the emotion during the ceremony- so real and heartfelt. The way the parents teared up, the way the groom looked at his bride, the way the bride held on tight to the groom. The kiss (and hug).  The whole happy (and freezing) wedding party. We did manage few shots outside right after the ceremony but it was very shortlived as it was sooooo cold out there. But they were all troopers and didn’t complain. And even though I was only halfway listening, I ADORED the stories the bride and groom both wrote to be shared during the ceremony about why they love eachother. So awesome. It’s not easy taking pictures while you are trying not to cry!

The bridal lounge. So far, my favorite bunch. But I guess thats kinda unfair to say since every time I edit another batch, I get new favorites! I just LOVE the bride & groom portraits- especially in the moca finish. They just look so classic- like out of the 1940’s or something.  

The whole wedding party (including all the parents) were just so good looking, they were so easy to shoot. Had to get some of my favorite candids in there too. The kids were also adorable and were pretty cooperative, especially considering the age range.  

I know it’s kinda photo overload on this post, but there are so many good ones, I couldn’t decide! They are all in an album on the left as usual. Click on any image to see it larger. Hope you are all enjoying them. On to editing the ceremony next. 

Ok, here we go. Finally, the first images from the HUGE wedding we shot on this past Sunday. These are just the first bunch, from the bridal suite. The first time we saw the bride, the dress, the first time the bride saw herself all ready, and the first time the groom saw the bride. The bridal suite album is on the left and contains all the full sized images. Personally, loved the bride’s choice of footwear before getting ready!

Finally finished editing. I guess it takes a little longer when there are over 800 pictures to start with! I posted some of my most favorites here in the beginning of the month before we left for Disney. Here are a few more of my favorites from the day. And I think the funniest part of the day were the self-named passive agressive bridesmaids. They appointed themselves and picked out their own matching outfits to wear to the wedding. I don’t think the bride knew she even had bridesmaids until they showed up that day. The whole album is on the left side of the blog under "the mas wedding". Enjoy! And if you have something nice to say about the pictures or the bride & groom, or the passive- agressive bridesmaids, please leave a comment below. I love comments!

Shot a wedding today and had the best time! This was the same bride from the shower a few weeks ago that I ended up staying out til almost 3am. It wasn’t a late night for me tonight but still had so much fun and got some really super shots. Today was my first time meeting the groom and I have to say I just adored him. A great guy and a great couple. I wish you guys only the best of everything!!

I took over 800 pictures today (filled up two flashcards completely!) I have tons of editing in front of me after vacation, but as promised a sneak preview tonight. I know most of these are bride & groom shots-I wanted to get those up first as the newlyweds leave on their honeymoon tommorrow. Lots and lots of other pictures to follow too, so don’t worry…yours will be up here soon.
