Two frames.
One wedding.
We delivered photos to Johnny and Erica yesterday. That’s always such an exciting and fulfilling finale to the wedding photography journey. At that point, you’ve been working with your couple for months and months. From the moment they hire you, to their engagement photo session, to the wedding day, and then through each photo in the editing process, delivery of that final set of images is a long-time coming.
I was looking through our final edit again today and loving these two images. The first is a different angle of a moment you’ve seen before. Looked at in the context of the full edit, it really gets your heart back in that scene. As this photo was taken, Dan was upstairs in the church, photographing the start of the procession to the altar. Erica and I were downstairs, where the music could be heard just well enough to know that it would change to the wedding march in mere seconds.
The second was taken on a golf course as we strolled around nine holes, taking wedding party portraits before the reception really got swinging. I love how relaxed and contagious these two look in their happiness. (And the cowboy hat made a second appearance!)
The wedding day offers so many clashing, yet interlocked emotions. I love that my job is to capture them all to be relived for the days to come.
