Congratulations Sarah and Greg

Saturday the weather was perfect for Sarah and Greg's big day. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding to start off the 2009 wedding season. They say that March comes in like a lion but the weather was great (and so we couldn't help but love the lion statues at the church). Mother of God Church in Covington was a wonderful location with so much inspiration everywhere we turned. Their reception followed their beautiful ceremony at The Gardens of Park Hills. The reception was so much fun with Joe from DJ Butlers keeping the party going. We had so many favorite moments on Saturday. But the one that made me laugh really hard was when Sarah's veil got caught in the wind after the ceremony. It came right off of her head and went straight up. The photo that I took really captures that moment. Sarah and Greg you two are so fun and we wish you two the very best! And to their friends and family - who we have been blessed to see at other family/friends weddings - we thank you for being so wonderful to photography and celebrate with. For more photos, please check out our Facebook page.

The tile work at the church was amazing!

The beautiful flowers were designed by The Secret Garden.

Apparently there was an updraft!

The cake was baked by Emerson's and decorated by Sarah's super talented grandfather.

Engagement, Sarah and Greg

On Tuesday Richard and I met up with Sarah and Greg for their engagement session. They live in California and are getting married in Covington in March. So our cold weather on Tuesday (and lack of sun) was definitely a shock. I wish it had been a bit warmer but we all still had a lot of fun. I first met Sarah back in 2005 at her brother John's wedding and I met Greg at her brother Chris' wedding in February. So I was super excited when they called us with their wedding date! These two were so much fun to work with and even Greg's son helped out. He told knock knock jokes to help us make the couple laugh. We are so excited to photograph their wedding in March!

A busy Friday night!

Friday night was great. I started out at the Madison Avenue Bridal Jewelry Gala and then was whisked away by my wonderful husband to a Ryan Adams concert at the Taft Theatre! What a night. The gala was a great chance to see some more of Jimi Designs' bridal collection. Of course I found earrings that I have to put on my Christmas list! The food was fabulous from La Cherie Bakery and Bistro and Chez Nora. Madison Avenue Bridal looked great with decor by Pollination and they had some fun dresses and accessories. The concert was amazing and I am so glad my hubby bought me a ticket. I have been wanting to see him play since like 2001 when Ben and I missed his concert in Asheville with Lucinda Williams. The concert was so amazing and I am so glad I didn't miss him this time! If you haven't heard his version of Wonderwall yet please check it out - he rocks!

Christine and Chris, Engagement

Sunday we had a great time hanging out with Christine and Chris. We had fun showing them some of our favorite spots in the MainStrasse area of Covington. What a great couple. They didn't argue about hugging and interacting but I think that had to do with the chilly weather too! I love how their photos turned out because you can see their beautiful passion and their fun side. It was great that they didn't look at me too funny when I asked them to pose by and old bus or the broken sign holder! Christine and Chris we are looking forward to photographing your wedding in Indy in April!
