Today’s Wedding

I shot a beautiful wedding today with my brother Caleb. We’re both pretty excited about what we got.

The church was great with several nice architectural details. Here are a couple shots I grabbed during a lull in the action.

Gracen & Michael

This past Friday my one and only sister got married. I come from a family of six children, but there were five boys and only one girl. I was asked to shoot the wedding. I did my best. I can’t say it was all that easy given I was feeling all the emotions from my sister being married, but at the same time trying to capture the moments as they went by. When my Dad took her down the aisle I almost couldn’t take it. It was rough.

Before the wedding, the wedding party and I took a trip to a friends house on Lake Keowee. It was a beautiful place to get some shots outside the formal chapel where the wedding was held. It was a bit of a trip with four cars, but we had a blast and it worked out perfectly. Thanks Barry!

By the way, fasten your seatbelts. This is going to be long. Hey, it’s my sister. Congratulations Gracen & Michael. All the very best.

Since they saw each other before the ceremony, I set up a way to capture their first look.

This is probably one of my favorites from the day. Each child is doing something so unique from the others, I just thought it was nice.

Gracen and her flower girls, Gwen and Chloe.

Here are the parents before the big march.

After a little encouragement, the ring bearer made a dash down the aisle. I also liked this shot of my Dad checking to see if my Mom was doing alright.

This is the point when I almost lost it.

Another favorite of mine. Each person feeling a completely different emotion.

It was great that Mimi (my grandmother) was able to make it. She was quite emotional in the receiving line.

Of course I had to include a shot of my one and only. I think about our wedding each time I shoot one.

The day offered a couple opportunities to shoot a few portraits of my brother Joshua.

This past Saturday I shot a wedding for a few of my friends, Jon & Missy. It was a pretty hot day, but we managed to keep thing moving and fairly short. Here are just a couple shots from the day. Missy & Jon, thanks for having me.
