It doesn’t take much for me to cry. A long distance phone commercial. The final episode of any show. A sappy song. I pretty much can cry at the drop of a hat.

While I will photographing the wedding ceremony, I really was not paying attention to what was going on. I was in the moment looking at different angles, trying to capture “the” shot. But once the bride and groom were announced as “mr and mrs.” and they kissed, my eyes became misty. Lame, but I love a good love story. I love to see people happy. I love to cry at weddings. And I guess if I am attending one or working one my emotions do not know the difference.

So if you hire me and I start to cry, just remember I can’t help it.

To me, life is more than just people. A memory is more than just a photo of a person smiling. To capture the true “feel” of a moment you have to document the small things people may over look.

Here are a few of those things from the Fry/Paterson wedding.

the wedding – getting ready…

I shot my first wedding a few weekends ago. I never wanted to do a wedding – to much pressure. But I got a great e-mail from Leslie and I could not pass this one up.

I have known Leslie and her family for almost 20 years (ouch); very comfortable situation. It was also going to be a very, very small wedding (27 people including bride and groom). Bonus points for that one. And she only wanted candid pictures!!!! Sign me up.

So happy I ventured out of my comfort zone and attempted this one. I learned so much from this experience and I am open to do more weddings.

Thanks so Leslie and Brian for being a beautiful couple and to her family and friends for letting me capture the feeling of the day.

I will have to post this wedding is parts – here are the “getting ready” images.
