Not really big, 50 people, and not fat at all...she was super small! But, it was Greek and FUN!

Copied from my blog... (again the strange formatting after i put in the numbers)

Slideshow!

Wow. I had the most amazing time at Grace and Nick's wedding. Really, I'm not just saying that. I love small intimate affairs. They had me sit with the guests, which is always fun..easier breaking the ice with the whole picture taking thing. The food was AMAZING. If you are in Frederick, MD, stop by Quynn's Attic for some grub. Or, even better, have an event there and have me photograph it :) I'm really in love with this place and can't wait to take my hubby there some time in the near future. Maybe we should meet Grace and Nick there for some drinks.

So, this was my first time photographing a Greek Wedding and it didn't disappoint. Beautiful church, wonderful people and a couple that really knew how to have fun. There was never a time when I wasn't taking a photo! That is why there are 37 photos below! I couldn't pick my normal 20 or so favs!

Enjoy and Opa!

    Well done great shots!!!!

    My last Greek (Orthodox) ... I pretty much had to stop taking photos about 5 minutes in....
    The place was so full of Incense smoke I could not see the front of the church.......

    Some great expressions and detail shots, but I am not very fond of #17.

    #6, however, is awesome. As well as 27 and 18. :)

    in normal country club weddings i don't tend to take photos of the food that much...but this was exceptional food. Yummm. Works of art that needed to be captured.

    Thanks.

    Really! i liked their expression in it. I wanted to reshoot this again but we ran out of time. I wanted more bubbles!

    I was trying something different with the back lit photos, gave them a warmer look. Seemed to work. And yes, 6 is definitely one of my favs.

    Thanks Ted!
