Jessica and Mac! A Wedding Sneak Peek

I promised you a few days ago I’d share more with you about what I’ve been up to lately. I’m sure you guessed from the images I posted – I photographed a wedding on Saturday! I’ve been planning on expanding into weddings for some time now, and this was my first.

I photographed Jessica, Mac, their daughter Emma, and Jessica’s immediate family last September. When Jessica asked me if I would cover her wedding, I said yes. All I can say is wow! What an amazing experience! I feel so privileged and honored to have been able to document Jessica and Mac’s day for them.

I titled this post a “sneak peek,” and I figured I’d just choose a few quick favorites to share for now. Well, I ended up with fourteen for you to enjoy!

I love mirrors! They make such wonderful compositional devices.

Finishing touches. Jessica was putting her makeup on, and attracted the attention of the ring bearer. He is so cute!

I love bubbles!

Okay – I have to tell you the story behind these two images. When it came time for Mac to go into the church, Emma did NOT want him to leave her. He picked her up to comfort her, and just held her for awhile.

As I shot this, I heard Mac whispering to his daughter, “I love you, Baby. I love you.” As a dad, it brought tears to my eyes.

The ring bearer and flower girl, both being carried. I love it!

Capturing moments, relationships, and emotions is my favorite part of being a photographer. Sometimes they all come together in one image.

Of course, Emma tried to steal the show!

I’ll have more images up in a bit. In the meantime, check out Allan Tuan’s blog! He shot the wedding with me, and he’s got some great images posted.

Jessica and Mac, thank you for the opportunity to document your day – it was wonderful!

    Joey, the mother of the groom gave me your web site. Mac is a cousin of mine and I loved being able to see the pictues. They are very good. The bride is beautiful and you got some great shots. It was very fun for us to have the pictures brought into our home thanks to you.
