Cassidy & Julie

Due to my latest trip to Malawi (more on that soon), it’s been about a month since Cassidy and Julie’s wedding.  Those of you who have been waiting all that time to see these… thanks for your patience!  While I don’t expect that to be the norm, I realized that it can be a good thing to let some time elapse between when I shoot a wedding and when I edit it.  A big advantage is that I’m less attached to the ideas behind a photo, and simply look at the image itself.  Which means that if I had a cool idea, but it didn’t really work out, I’m not going to force that photo anymore… and it will probably end up looking better.

This wedding was at Grace Church.  I’ve shot a ton of weddings there, and I have to try really hard to come up with something new and unique each time.  It’s a good challenge.  I feel like I definitely got some shots this time that I’d never done before.  See if you agree.

But enough about me.  The photos below are about Cassidy and Julie, a most gracious couple.  Some of you remember them from their engagement shoot downtown… their wedding was a delight too!  I’m so glad I got to know their personalities beforehand so that I could appreciate how truly excited they were to be getting married to each other!

I love that I finally got a ring shot where the action happens vertically…
