I'm breaking all the rules today.
Okay. Not all the rules.
Just one rule.
And yes, technically it's my own rule I invented for myself, but it's still a rule and I'm breaking it.
I'm a rebel like that.
I never write about the subjects that appear in the images in my blog posts, but today is different.
Because these people are different.
In a good way...a way that made this one of the most fun, original weddings I have had the pleasure of shooting.
Why?
Well, let's just have a little Q&A shall we?
We shall.
...........................................................................
Before now have I ever shot a wedding in which the bride and groom shared a bathroom while prepping?
No.
Before now have I ever shot a wedding in which the groom tied his tie by watching a YouTube tutorial?
No.
Before now have I ever shot a wedding in which an alien name Caroline was an attendee?
Yes.
Wait.
I think that was someone's great-great-aunt.
So, no.
Is there a reason a foam alien in a sun dress named Caroline is attending this wedding and also holding the hands of the bride's nephews during the ceremony?
Yes.
Do I know the reason?
No.
Am I okay with it?
Yes.
Yes.
Does this say something about my clients?
Yes. It says they're silly and fun and not afraid to do something different.
I like that.
Before now have I ever made a bouquet for a bride at a wedding I'm shooting on the day of the wedding?
No.
Did I make this bride's bouquet?
Yes.
Am I going to quit my photography business and become a florist?
No.
No.
Would I shoot there again?
A hundred times yes and a Ding Dong.
(The Ding Dong was added for emphasis.)
Did we get weird looks from other visitors while walking around a state park with a bridal party?
Yes.
Was this most likely because we also had a child-sized foam alien named Caroline in tow?
Yes.
Were we oblivious to this?
Obviously.
Before now had I ever put my bride and groom in a tree?
No.
Did the bride almost fall out of said tree?
Yes.
Did I laugh until I almost peed my pants?
You should have no doubt in your mind.
Do I love on-location weddings?
Yes.
Should I do more Q&A's?
No.
Should you watch this video?
Most definitely.
Most definitely.
Thank you for your questions but that's all we have time for today.
