You have no idea how excited I am to share these with you. Not only because this couple is ridiculously gorgeous and the bridal party an absolute blast to work with (I think I spent more time trying to catch my breath from laughing so hard than actually shooting) – but also because they are just one of those perfect couples. I mean that in the most none-cliche way possible. When I was showing one of these images to another photographer the response was exactly what I mean, “like an advertisement to get married!”. That’s exactly how you see Katie and Tim – one big love advertisement!
Check back in a day. I have a HUGE announcement to make regarding Brittany Esther Photography – inspired by Katie and Tim’s wedding :)
Enjoy!
All you ladies who are swooning over Katie’s necklace (because I sure am) – there is a bit of a story behind it. This past summer she bought this piece of jewelry from a lady who collects old bracelets, necklaces, and earrings, and from this ‘junk’ makes a work of art. All the proceeds are then donated to a homeless shelter. How amazing is that?!
Good genes I tell ya.
Is Katie not a gorgeous bride? The most unfair part of it all? She looks this pretty every day. Even her seven year old students were commenting on how pretty of a dress she had on and how pretty “Miss R” looked. You know they love her a ton by the number of feet swinging in mid-air during the ceremony. Following the ceremony we did a class photo and upon completing it Katie turned to her students and told them she would be back on Wednesday – to which some witty little lad replied ‘why?” – needless to say we were all in stitches and I am pretty certain the position of class clown has now been decided.
Just a shout-out for all those single men out there. Beware of engineers! They are taking all the pretty ladies out there! No seriously. At least half of this years grooms were engineers and all their groomsmen. So if you are needing to find yourself a lady, become an engineer.
On that note however. I think Katie scooped up the winning ticket engineer. Not only is he an engineer but as made clear during the speeches he is a hopeless romantic. That’s right. This guy reads spanish poetry and proposed in the heart of Paris.
Pretty certain Tim is the only person known to mankind who can hold a straight face while his best man says who knows what! Oh. One more great point about Tim. He has an uncanny ability to retain words. Not only at our engagement session did I learn that a ‘clock doctor’ is a horologist, but upon simply pointing my arms out to start explaining my idea regarding the shot did he just nod and say, “The Vitruvian Man”. Yes. Yes indeed. I think Katie and Tim are a perfect match. Teacher meets walking encyclopedia.
Totally unscripted. I warned you: awesome bridal party!
I’ll have a little bit of Napoleon with that.
The one game at the reception had Katie blindfolded needing to identify her groom (which I am glad to say she was successful in) then finding some strategically placed clips on said groom.
This summer as an elective option I took a film course and some of the sample work we were shown included a landscape photographer who used shards of glass in his work. It was stunning to say the least. When I discovered the centerpieces at the reception being packed up – I had to steal it for this!
Congratulations you two!
