very, very first wedding

This is the first time I took a camera to a wedding that I wasn’t attending as a guest.  It was 2009.  I was a co-shooter, but not one with a gun.  I used to think I didn’t do a good enough job to be blog-worthy despite having permission to post these, but I went back through them recently and there are quite a few really nice moments I captured that I would love to share with you a few at a...

where I’ve been

I got a message on facebook a few weeks ago from a friend and fellow photographer, Crissy, from the DFW area about a wedding. She was on board as the photographer but the bride and groom switched the date from a Saturday to a Sunday and she was no longer available to cover their wedding. With my in-laws able to watch and babysit my three very young sons, I was able to drive up to Fort Worth and cover the wedding for Crissy. Here are just a few off of the first memory card I’ve copied. I will do a full wedding post at a later date once I get all of the photos copied. Ryan and Elena,...
