a wedding shower & a late night

I was asked to do some pictures at a bridal shower last night- and I had a GREAT time! I knew almost everyone at the shower thru many different avenues (friends, former co-workers, siblings/relatives of friends) and I’ve done pictures previously for quite a few of them. You’ll probably recognize a bunch of the faces at the shower from other posts/albums on the blog.

I have to say as a side note that’s it’s so cool walking into someone’s house and seeing pictures that I took enlarged and in frames on display throughout the house. Such a boost, ya know? That makes me so happy.

Anyway, the bride to be is such a sweet girl and I am soooo happy for her. I will be shooting the wedding in about 2 weeks so be on the lookout for those pictures soon. (They probably won’t be on the blog until late February as we are leaving for Disney like 2 days after the wedding so I won’t have time before to edit). The shower was at the bride’s sister’s house- who’s birthday it was earlier in the week. She was very generous not only opening her house for the shower, but giving up her birthday (which I have come to understand is a VERY BIG DEAL as she dosen’t like to share that date with anyone) to do it. We did hear quite a few times during the course of the evening that she gave up her birthday-it somehow made it into almost every conversation of the night. You’re a good girl, T! And Happy Birthday!

I had a great time shooting at the shower. It was a really fun, intimate get together. So easy to shoot when you know almost everyone there. She got some great gifts and I got some great shots. I was planning on doing my usual 2hr deal at the shower, but was having so much fun catching up with everyone and hanging out (after taking all the pictures) that it was around 2:30am before I left! Oops.

Hope you all love the pictures!
