THE WEDDING...

I can accurately call the Williamson-Flateau wedding that took place on July 13th "The Wedding" because it was my very first attempt at wedding photography, and will most likely be my last.  Three objectives must be met in order to convince me to even consider shooting another wedding: 1) The Bride must be as sweet and laid back as Trish Williamson was.  She was such a joy to work with, and she totally trusted me every step of the way, even though I was so beyond my comfort zone.  2) I must be allowed to shoot the wedding my way.  No questions, just let me shoot.  Bridezillas need not apply.  And 3) The check writer, or "Daddy" in most cases must have DEEP pockets, and not be afraid to access the hidden depths of said pockets.  Seriously.  Truth be known, I had a blast doing this.  I definitely stepped outside of my element for a few days, but it was a great learning experience.  The wedding was absolutley beautiful, and I thank Trish and Jesse for not only allowing me to be a part of their special day, but also for being so understanding and patient with me as I muddled my way through.  I wish you both a long life filled with love and laughter always, and lots and lots of children.  (Want one of mine?)

Here are a couple of shots from the bridal session and a few wedding images.  You can view the entire slideshow by clicking on the slideshow link of the lovebirds on the right.  However, the slideshow is long and will take a couple of minutes to download, if you have dial up you could go ahead and leave on your summer vacation - it may be ready when you return. 

This is Ashley, if I'm correct she's the daughter of Jesse's best flying buddy.  Isn't she just the most adorable thing?  If I wasn't being paid to photograph the wedding, my camera and I would have probably never left her side. 

Thanks again Trish.  You sweet talked me into shooting your wedding, a feat nobody else has ever accomplished.  And I'm so glad you did, it was wonderful!
