the magic of a wedding…
I have to share these images, cause it was awesome.
I got to be the ‘photographer’ at a wedding and reception this weekend. The young woman that was married used to be my ‘regular’ babysitter-since she was just a little girl! And it was amazing to see her all grown up, watching her take the next step in life was remarkable. I don’t consider myself qualified to be a wedding photographer, but I was cheap (free) and hopefully I got the job done.
(allison tyler jones took their engagment and bridals… you can see them HERE. alison is so AWESOME! she even stopped by the reception and i got to visit with her for a sec… i LOVE her)
The best part of the process for me was to attend her actual wedding, and sit in the room of the temple as she and her cutie groom were sealed. It totally took me back to the day that Eric and I were married in the Salt Lake Temple. I was kinda amazed at how clearly I remembered the feelings I had and that day…being newlywed- taking that step into a life together. I spent the rest of the day thinking about milestones and setbacks…the highs and lows. I am truly thankful to the man I married. To the family that I gained in so doing, and the life that we have created together… and most of all, our most beautiful, sweet children. No matter where we are, or what we have…we have each other. Weddings are wonderful! Full of promise, hope and opportunity…funny how you think you love your husband so much on that day, and how much that love grows.
Wishing Elizabeth and Clint the very best…I hope you remember the things you both heard and felt that day. I will.

Having a daughter who is 19…I’m now collecting wedding ideas to have ready for any future engagements. Hopefully I’ll have a long time to plan.

15 June, 2009 at 4:10 pmThat transition was outstanding. How fun for you! Question: I could not see any credit to the musical group that recorded the music that plays on his website and while her engagement photos were showing. Can you find that out? I have to have that music, I instantly loved it. I want to by a CD by the group. Hope to see some of the great photos you took of them.

16 September, 2009 at 4:51 pmAs a bride-to-be on a tight budget, I recently discovered an online bridal jewelry store called GlamForLess.com.
Though their website is plain and simple, I found some great deals on jewelry sets for me and my bridesmaids.
I think other readers on a tight budget may also find GlamForLess.com to be helpful.
You may want to check them out at http://www.glamforless.com/ and inform other readers about it.
Keep up the good work.
Best regards,
