dear dad

shannon and bryan

this is my portrait of bryan

(and yes mom, i meant to cut his head off)

gangs are not funny, but a bunch of groomsmen who are clearly not in a gang flashing gang signs is...

the crossing guard left his sign unattended...

the reason i love this shot is the glint of sun peeking from behind. the sun was in and out and i just happened to catch it and i thought it made the shot... it's the little things that excite me.

the ceremony hadn't even started yet!

i'm not going to take her expression personally...

i'm still not quite sure what shannon's brother was gesturing about, but i caught him!

i hope this woman forgives me for posting this picture, but it just cracked me up because i caught her in the act of doing that thing you never wanted your mom doing to you in public.. you know, where she licks her fingers and then fixes your hair or wipes something off your face...

shannon and bryan's sign to each other in case of crying...

christmas themed centerpieces...

cutie pie flower girl...

more cowbell...

another gang sign?!?

after the wedding ended, we headed over to the diner across the street. shannon and bryan were ecstatic since they love diners!

i have an irrational fear of ketchup. luckily, i was able to take this shot from outside....far away from the ketchup...

shannon and bryan were such a pleasure to work with. they were up for anything and kept great spirits! and as always, i had a great time shooting with todd laffler. check out his fabulous take here.
