Three Months to the Day

Today is exactly three months till our wedding day and I have to say that it is really going to get exciting from this point on. I've been counting down the days with a desktop widget application and it hit home last week when the days went from triple digits to double digits. To be honest we really have a lot of the big items already taken care of and now it's down to all the small details and logistics. I often joked to my fiancee that if I could shoot my own wedding I would but for the actual day we are going to leave it to our professional photographer, Alana Couch. Although I have thought about rigging up a few flashes along with a camera on a tripod and triggering everything from a Pocket Wizard while I say my vows during the ceremony. Somehow I don't think that would go over very well though. Here's a fun moment from our engagement shoot a few months ago.

Wedding Moment

Sometimes it is all about being in the right place at the right time. I captured these two shots of the bride and groom sharing one of their first kisses as a married couple. I just happened to be sitting in the aisle when the couple was stopped by the real wedding photographer for a shot of them and I was just a few feet away. Not that I aspire to be a wedding photographer but I really enjoy capturing magical moments and I thought this opportunity with the sunlight coming in worked well.

Wedding Shoot

This past weekend I helped out some friends on their wedding day and took some photos for them. It was some good practice and made me appreciate just how hard wedding photographers have to work. Some moments and shots you can plan but the spontaneous moments are the best. Here are some shots from that day.
