Saturday, was our first wedding of 2008! I was so excited to be shooting again, especially having it right after a convention and being so pumped up! I was seeing so much more than I used to! I almost couldn’t shoot it fast enough!
Katie and I met Tara and her girls at Riverdale Manor while they got ready. We were taken upstairs to this cute little room. I could hear the girls giggling they came up the steps. They were so funny, always shooting pictures of themselves and playing it up for the camera. We had a little bit of time before the guys were ready, so I took them up the little street away from the manor for some fun shots. We had to avoid the mud since it did rain the night before. I kept saying ” ooh, come here” every time I saw something else to shoot. They played along.
Later, Chris and the guys were ready and we could do much more with them since their heels wouldn’t sink. But, we did have to dodge some goose droppings…fun fun!
The ceremony was held in the ball room and was so elegantly decorated. As soon as Tara walked in, she shot Chris the hugest, giggly smile I have ever seen!
In order to use the rest of the daylight we had, we opted to hold off on family pics and have Tara and Chris alone for a little. It was so nice to not have tons of people around and they could relax and be themselves.
Once all the family shots were done, dinner was served and Matthew from Occasions DJ’s got the party moving! I did manage to sneak Tara and Chris out for more alone time.
We stayed until the very end for the sparkler exit. I always love these and the beautiful light it creates.
Congratulations guys! Here is your slideshow and a few of my favs!
