2010

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
In 2010 I have to say, I had a pretty great year. I photographed 11 gorgeous weddings. I want to extend a huge "Thank you" to all of my 2010 couples! It was a pleasure getting to know you, work with you, meet your family and friends, and get to be a part of your wedding day. To celebrate, here's the amazing couples from 2010:

Brad & Liz|May 15th

Jena & Andrew|May 29th

Chelsey & Tyler|June 5th

Jenna & Drew|July 10th

Kelsey & Jared|July 24th

Megan & Colby|July 31st

Megan & Jeff|September 11th

Danielle & Derek|November 6th


I wish you all happiness with your time together! Have a wonderful 2011!

P.S. Two couples are not in this blog due to privacy agreements. Those two weddings were just as wonderful as the rest and I am grateful to all eleven couples, their faith in me and the time I was given to get to know them.

I'm going to warn you now: I may have gone a little overboard with this post. In fact, it will be split up into two posts. This one is just prepping you for the next one: getting ready pictures, first glance, and then a sneak peek at some portraits of the bride and groom. Soon to come are the ceremony and reception pictures.

Danielle & Derek's wedding was my last wedding for 2010 and also occurred on one of those unnaturally warm/wonderful/sunny November days. I started off the day by meeting up with Danielle for her hair and make-up appointment, who (I might add) already had happiness radiating off of her. Then we headed over to the church to meet up with Derek, take some pictures, and watch them get married! There are plenty of book references in this wedding, due to Danielle being a librarian and their shared interest of reading. I believe Danielle's dad said during his speech that he knew he'd have to get used to Derek being around when he caught them both reading on the couch one day. I have to say, they are pretty amazing together.
