wedding.


remember these photos? well, this was their reception, and it was so much fun to photograph. about 2 minutes after they set the tables in a beautiful backyard in mapleton, there was a clap of thunder and then...you guessed it. a torrential downpour! everything was drenched. d.r.e.n.c.h.e.d. i tell ya! it was awful...but, upon further inspection, it was wonderful too. i couldn't help but enjoy capturing the chaotic, and very wet moments that this beautiful couple will be laughing about on their honeymoon and fondly telling their grandchildren about at their 60th wedding anniversary. all of it just felt... special...from the wrinkled tablecloths to the hurricane vases filled with rainwater. even more special were the 20 or so people who were rushing all over the yard wiping, and dumping, and cleaning, and re-arranging all for the love of this couple. the food was beautiful, the setting was gorgeous, and there were plenty of wonderful characters to capture in my lens. here are just a few of my favorites. (and yes, i really like food...how could you tell?)
