Default Tim and Jean

I just started editing the wedding photos from last weekend. I tell you, it was so hard to photograph their ceremony as I was blubbering the whole time. Their words to each other, the officiant, the emotions behind it were probably the single most touching wedding I have ever attended. These two really are a one of a kind. The love and admiration they radiate is amazing
I've only gotten as far as the bride getting ready and one of the family shots so far. Only about a thousand more to go.........................

You have given these photos a timeless quality. They could be another era or today. The pearl necklace detail is perfect. Well...heck...all that a bride and groom would want to record the memories of the day, you have. You are such an inspiration.

Thanks!! Her dress is called a Sori. Talk about fun watching her get dressed. The yards upon yards of fabric that were wrapped around her and the detail in them was just amazing.
She is a Yoga and a belly dance instructor so hence, the sori.

I admire what you do so much, I am just a elementry school student in artistic editing and I learn so much from the work you share. These are terrific, I like them all, such a timeless feeling,

the angle and texture of the wall, the awesome pattern of the Sori dress thingy and her amazing expression in the first - beautiful

letting the pearls do all of the talking in the second - simple and elegant

Your angle with the window behind her and reflecting in the mirror and the timing of the lipstick right in the middle .. that's alot of experiance showing in a great composition.

I like the fouth alot.. her armband shows alot of her determination and strenght ( she's not a middle of the road type ) and I LOVE the peeling up old style edges.

I am very glad you share your work with us, for someone like me who's really interested in doing my own style and making things orignal with my photos you are such an inspiration and have been since I've been a member ... " I'm bored , look what I made !! " and I go WOW !

I also know your a Lady of few words and I remember you telling me " I'd better know what I'm doing Vin, it's what I do " ... I still am very grateful for the ongoing examples of what's possible with time and effort, because it's not easy... SO THANKS !

Vin

Wow! Thank you just doesnt seem adequate for that compliment, but from the very bottom of my heart, thank you!

I had to chuckle at these guys as I had them in all kinds of pses. They thought I was going to just walk in and say ok "SNAP" here's your photos. They truly beleived that all the images they see in magazines were just created at the moment of the ceremony. I had to explain that no, even tho you may find these unnatural to postion yourself in, when you see the finished product they will look very natural. And yes, these were all posed shots except for the last which was a quich shot on her dressing area

As always, your work just radiates the emotion of the moment. They are going to be thrilled.
