Steampunk Wedding

You Had Me At Steampunk Circus:

It’s the stuff dreams are made of; twisted dreams. Dreams that make you ponder what the hell just happened in your brain at 3:00a.m., but inevitably leave a smirk on your face, amazed at what the mind is capable of conjuring up when left to its own devices. Rachel and Adam’s wedding was like that.

From the moment I met them, I crossed my fingers that they would pick me to be on team Rachel and Adam’s Circus Steampunk wedding. When they did, I was reverent in the honor to bear witness and to capture the farthest borders of their imaginations.

If you want to see more of their big day (and believe me, you really, really do) check out their gallery.

Wedding Recap

As I mentioned in my previous post, I shot over 21,500 images last year. It is exceedingly difficult to narrow that down to ten images. In choosing my favorites, I consider the ones that move me – no matter how many times I see them and no matter what the content is. I a moved on a visceral level each time they come across my screen. Sometimes the emotion is profound joy and other times I’m enthralled by capturing an honest moment – so honest that I know I’m peering directly into someone’s soul. The honor of receiving permission to capture a moment and glimpse into a soul (often a person I know very little about) is breath taking. I’m thankful for every opportunity.

Photo Documentary: My Best Friend’s Wedding Part One

I had the honor of not only witnessing, but having a place at her side as my best friend Andy Beth married her Hawaiian Lion, Byron. Of course, it was a challenge for me to set the camera aside every now and again, but I truly did relish and permeate through the wedding atmosphere with a lightness and joy in my position as maid of honor.

The scene for this beautiful, sunny day was set in Andy’s sister’s back yard in the bohemian, southern town of Asheville, North Carolina. It was attended by a handful of guests that literally encircled the couple as they repeated their vows.

As I captioned these photos I really felt that besides a short caption they simply spoke for themselves. As you click on each image you can feel the intimacy and love. I need say no more than what the photos already say.
