Renee and I shot this wedding and had a great time. We always tell people to not worry about the rain as it makes the photographs better. Yes, it did rain and the umbrellas came out in masses durring the wedding. You tell us if what we say is true or not . . .

Enjoy . . .

Yes, another gorgeous wedding at the mansion. Jackie and I shot this one and it went flawless. Getting all the people to get where they were supposed to be for the “entire group” shot was a little difficult but we did pull it off. When people see each other at weddings, it is very difficult to get them to stop their little conversations and listen to your instructions and needs. So for all those who thought we were screaming . . . (well, we kinda were) because it was the only way to get everyone to “move” to where we needed them for the shot. Go through the site and see what we are talking about for this.

Here are some shots from the event. Hope everyone likes them. We had a ball . . .

By the way . . . “BEST WEDDING FAVORS EVER!!!”
