The Wedding...

WOW !!!! The wedding was fantastic !! The Bride was stunning and the Groom looked great. I started several hours before the wedding shooting the exterior of the family home where the Bride grew up. She was to be married on the front porch and it was perfect. Hanging baskets, the area for he string quartet, the unity candle, and a white "runway" for the Bride to walk up from the the circle drive. I was in my element. The sky was of and on overcast and there was a forecast for rain around four in the afternoon....the wedding was to be at six. I reflected on the power of positive thinking....it's not going to rain....it's not going to rain...

Through the organized chaos activity started to move in the direction of a wedding happening. The Groom, his Mom and Dad and several of his groomsmen appeared and we started to shooting. We used window light and some additional sources from my light packs for other groupings. We finished the family from brothers and grandparents, and I looked to see if the Bride was ready. She was and as I requested, she had not put on her veil. We photographed her with all of her attendants, parents and grandparents. It was fun but the clouds continued to build outside. Continued tomorrow...
