Having just done AJ + Precious’ engagement photos a month earlier, it felt like their wedding came so quick. From what I heard too, it was organized somewhat last minute too, which you wouldn’t have even been able to tell. It was just the perfect wedding, and I’m so thankful I was a part of it.
I started my day with the boys at the house, for some casual getting ready photos. I could tell immediately that they were a relaxed and fun bunch of guys, which makes my job that much easier. After about 30 minutes I headed over to The Chanterelle for the wedding reception. A few of the girls were a little bit behind schedule at the hair salon, but it all worked out in the end.
Photographing the ceremony itself was actually a little more challenging than usual. I have never seen, in all my years, that many people with cell phones taking photos. I adapt to any situation, and move to get the perfect shot, so no harm done. If anything it was really great to see so many people interacting and enjoying themselves. It made for a very unique atmosphere.
After the ceremony, and a very short break, we took the limo down to the marina where we spent a couple hours getting some family photos, wedding party photos and just a good mix of candid moments. The weather held out just long enough!
The rest of the night was back at The Chanterelle. As soon as it started everyone was having a good time. The DJ, was amazing, and played a couple awesome games, which led to some equally amazing photos. Before my night was done, I captured the first dances. It was definitely a memorable wedding, and I’m super happy with all the photos I was able to capture.
