layla & patrick

layla and patrick had their wedding at bear mountain's carousel on a lovely fall day. the last time i'd been to bear mountain was for a cross country race in high school, so it was neat to be back to be shooting and riding a carousel instead!

bridesmaid's shoes....that's some serious shoe...

patrick is french canadian so the invites were printed in both english and french...

layla has one of those contagious smiles...

props to this bridal party for not giving me crap eventhough i made them walk in goose crap!

all smiles during the ceremony...

instead of just having the bride and groom light a candle... layla and patrick had all of their guests light a candle...

fire...

tables were set up around the carousel that ran all night for the guests...i personally rode it 7 times which is my personal carousel-riding record at a wedding.

i love the happy in this photo and the glow of the carousel lights...fun atmosphere...

he waited all night just to ride the turkey...

sometimes you need a little time alone to ride the carousel on your wedding day...

rockin' out with friends....

thanks to layla and patrick for having me capture their day and for trekking themselves around the park for me!
