Brittany and Andy’s engagement photos

We took Brittany and Andy’s engagement pics last week, and we had a fabulous time with them. They started off the shoot talking about how nervous they were and how “unphotogenic” they are. This couple not photogenic?…..yeah right….

A lot of our clients have claimed to be unphotogenic before, but we’ve proved all of them wrong, and now we can prove Brittany and Andy wrong as well because check out these photos of this beautiful and awesome couple. I don’t think they are capable of taking “bad” pictures.

We found an abandoned shopping cart and they were just awesome enough to climb in.

Katie and Zac’s wedding

Katie and Zac’s wedding was the fifth wedding in a row that we shot during June and July. Now I know that’s not a lot for wedding photographers who shoot weddings full-time; but for us two part-timers who have other full-time jobs, it WAS a lot. But I honestly can not think of a better wedding and a better couple to end our marathon of weddings with. Zac and Katie were AMAZING to work with, and their wedding was so incredibly fun and beautiful. There are so many things that made this couple and their wedding awesome; but instead of listing them one-by-one, I’ll let their pictures do the talking. So sit back and enjoy the slew of pictures you’re about to be bombarded with :) .

Example #1 of their awesomeness: Their wedding took place on a gorgeous horse pasture and the reception was in the horse stable. They even used Mason jars and burlap for their flowers and decorations.

Example #2 of their awesomeness: They wrote sweet letters to each other to be read during the ceremony. It added such a personal touch to the wedding.

Example #3 of their awesomeness: They chose to see each other before the ceremony so that we could get plenty photos of them and their bridal party. I LOVE it when couples decide to do a “first look.” The pictures are always so real and emotional.

Example #4 of their awesomeness: There was a red barn to take pics with.

Example #5 of their awesomeness: We told Zac to “dip” Katie like we sometimes do, but this is what we got instead :)

Example #6 of their awesomeness: The bridesmaids (AND bride) wore boots with their dresses.

Future bridesmaids, THIS is how you should treat the bride on her special day :)

Example #7 of their awesomeness: We typically tell grooms “hands in pockets” for a more natural pose, but these groomsmen took it one step further and put their hands in their neighbors’ pockets. Hilarious group of guys. Seriously.

Example #8 of their awesomeness: They now hold the record for the largest group jumping picture that we’ve ever shot.

Example #9 of their awesomeness: The wedding ceremony was at the PERFECT time and PERFECT location to get gorgeous photos. The ceremony was also so personalized to them as a couple. From the letters to each other that were read to the groom praying for their marriage, it was all just so perfect.

Denise and Jon’s wedding

I know, I know…we’re supposed to be updating this blog at least once a week (preferably twice a week), and lately we’ve only updated it about once every week and a half. But that’s good news for our clients because that means we’re busy working on y’alls photos :). So just hang tight with us and we’ll be updating more often when wedding season dies down.

Now on to Denise and Jon’s pictures…this wonderful couple tied the knot on a hot, but beautiful, July 4th day. Denise was all smiles all day, and they both made the day so enjoyable for us and all the guests. We had such a great time with them on their special day!

Denise and Jon, thank y’all so much for letting us be a part of y’alls wedding and we hope y’all enjoy your pics. Thanks again :)! Y’all rock!!! (and I know it seems like we say that to all our clients, but our clients really truly rock!)

Denise and Jon decided to see each other before the wedding; and of course, we were thrilled about that. I love seeing the bride and groom together for the first time on their wedding day. It is always a sweet and intimate moment, and we get such special pictures like this one:
