Kate and Jeremy's wedding

heatherfeather

It has been a super busy summer for me... I am having a hard time keeping up with my processing! But I just had to share this wedding, since it was a special one (to me).
You might remember the April engagement session I did for my HS friend, Kate. Anyway, now she and Jeremy are married. :lust


1.


2. This is from their first glimpse of each other on the wedding day.


3. (she was just a little happy at that moment)

8. We have had so many forest fires lately, the inlet is almost obscured by smoke.


9. And just a little silliness. :wink


10.
My little brother's company did the videography, so it was kind of fun to work with him. He is a cutie pie, huh!


11. Kate had 8 flower girls... and they all hovered around her like little butterflies...





12. There were LOTS of kids at her wedding, and they were so cute! I could have just spent the time following them around!

Heather these are AWESOME as always! Good Job!

Wheeee! I've been waiting for this shoot since you teased it elsewhere a while back

My absolute fave is #4 with 6 and 3 coming in just behind, but, as usual, they're all lovely.

And can I just give the nod to Kate and say HALLELUJAH that a bride with curves had the sense to wear a shrug over the strapless gown. It looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much prettier that way! She's absolutely gorgeous anyway, but this was a perfect choice for her figure and she manages to look classy and hott simultaneously. Go Kate!

Wow, I remember this e-shoot, and I remember remarking how hot this bride was. True to form she is hot here too. Is that a PALM TREE? in Alaska? I really like these and I see them as a bit of a departure for you in composition and lighting and to an extent in processing. Your compositions are usually VERY clean and simple, these are a bit more eclectic, with the addition of foreground elements and strong negative space. Your hallmark in the past has been to use a good deal of fill flash, these are very natural, and a little edgy. The processing looks like you have been hanging out with Agnieska. Guess with so little light to work with most of the year, you really stretch out and make the most of it when you have it to work with. They look great.

You say "Halleluja" and I'll say AMEN! I just wish other girls could "get a clue" and follow her example. Her simple planning ahead and that flawless skin and huge smile really helped me out a ton in postwork!

Meanwhile, picture her while listening to one of the great ladies of Jazz and you'll pretty much get an accurate idea of her personality!

I don't really know what kind of tree it is.... it was potted, so I suppose it could have been...

I have a style? Cool! And what a compliment! (When I grow up I want to be Agnieska, so yay!) I do love taking advantage of the light... and my goal for the summer was to begin to use a very shallow depth of field... which adds more light and that feel I suppose. Glad you can see steps in the direction I have been trying so hard to go!

Thank you Blurmore!

She is surely a stunning bride.....beautiful classic looks that she manages to capitolize on......and you have captured her well.

I always enjoy seeing your work, but this time, the two shots of the children....12 and 13......well....those are just great captures...as I LOVE the energy and expressions that they hold.

Boy golly....if no one else had a good time those kids sure DID!:D

Beautiful! I love the look of number 1 and the emotion of number 6. I also like number 9--it's great when your bride and groom will have fun!

Hey Mod,

Thanks for the kudos.

I guess you could say I am a sucker for little shining (and possibly messy) faces...

Thanks! I know! Isn't that a treat! Usually I can't coax these kinds of expressions until after the ceremony... but Kate has her own brand of spunk. I am sure that our many years of friendship (and inside jokes) helped.

The whole series is terrific,

I especially like the composition of #4 and the treatment on 13.

Agnieszka

Love this set, love it ... love it, love it!

I do hate you for #9, haha .. dying to get a shot like that for a while now, but didn't have the right couple yet

Haha ... and that kiddo with the "dirty" face, too adorable

#1 is my favorite.

heatherfeather

Thanks Alice, Angie and Lara-

To Alice- I love #4 too! But I was worried that his eyes looking up like that might be viewed as too fem. But it seems to be ok, and I think I'll keep it!

To Angie- It just worked out! There was a greenhouse right there and it had the tools so handy we just HAD to make it happen.

To Lara- #1 IS mighty special. I just love it when real emotion comes through the photos.

FYI....I saw a few of the guests from this wedding on FOX news last night...and looking good!:D

I saw Kate herself on ABC the night before... aaah the limelight. Pretty crazy.

I love the fun emotion of #4! and the selective color in #13. Reminds me of the olden days(sigh) Looks like it was a fun time for all!

Love these shots Heather. 3,4,and 6 are the real deal though. Obviously their true selves showing through in those. Such a lovely couple!!!
