Nick & Catherine's Wedding

On August 13th I had the pleasure of capturing another great couple joining their families together.



I just love weddings! I was shocked when 2 couples asked me to do their weddings this summer. I kept telling myself, "I'm no photographer, what do I think I'm doing?" I remember reading a quote a bit less than a year ago that really stuck with me;

To do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in, and scramble through as well as we can. -Sydney Smith

So that is what I did. I was scared. Very scared. I thought surely I'd mess up the moments that were passing right before my eyes. Moments that I couldn't ask one to redo should I not get the shot. But guess what? I didn't mess it up! In fact, they were both pleased with their pictures. I'm so glad I didn't ruin it. I learned a lot and found that in fact I do pretty well under pressure. I'm no expert and have a million and one things left to learn, but the first step needs to be taken. Rare is it that someone can be a pro at something upon first trying it. Anyway, here are a few of my favorites from Nick and Catherine's big day.

Zane and Becky's Wedding : July 16, 2011

This being my very first wedding I was so nervous! I really pushed myself to do the best job I possibly could and I think I did alright for my first time. They are still on their honeymoon so I don't think they've seen them yet. I sure hope they like them. I ended up with 826 pictures to give them! I won't post all of them here, but you can check out their album on my h Flickr if you want to see a LOT more. Here are some shots from their day:

Haha, a fun drawing in Photoshop.









I had a blast! I have another wedding to photograph August 13th!
