A Weekend Wedding (and my first Wedding Shoot … sort of)
November 24, 2008
As my wife is a *little* bit older (wink wink, honey) than I am, she was one of the very last of her circle of friends to get married. I wasn’t the first, but quite a few of my friends are still living up the bachelor life.
So when Neal and Cynthia dun’ got hitched this last weekend, we were there to witness two of our closest friends who will now check the “married” box. Their wedding and reception were a great time (chocolate fountain, need I say more?) and Toni and I were both proud to be a part of their bridal party. Neal and I also had a blast eating breakfast, hanging out and just drinking coffee the morning of the big day … he was even calmer than I was!
If there is any downside to the honor of being asked to participate in the wedding of your friends, it’s that I didn’t have as much opportunity to take pictures. I’ve been trying to work my way into portraiture, engagement and eventually even wedding photography and there’s a delicate balance between photographing such an occasion and actually participating in it as a friend and celebrant! I decided to err on the side of participation, but here are a few of my fav shots I snagged:
Happy honeymoon and all the best and a lifetime of love to you both, Cynthia and Neal!

I myself buy from and would recommend the following camera retailers to any one! They offer good prices and top shelf service. In particular, both Adorama and B&H are great resources for learning and I've always found their staff to be very helpful and knowledgeable. I'd so appreciate it if you use the links below to begin shopping; it won't cost you an extra cent but I'll earn a small commission which will allow me to spend more time answering your questions and helping others!
