Hey guys. You may remember this couple's E-session

Here are a few preview shots from the wedding. As always, say something if you like or just take a look! Either way, all is good.

07. She is Persian and he's from Idaho, so they did first a civil union outside.

10. This is a traditional Persian Knife Dance, where single women dance with the knife used to cut the cake and the groom must convince them to give him the knife and bribe them with money. It was fun, and there were 5 or 6 women who danced.

    That last one is my new favorite detail shot. Stunning beyond stunning. It's rare that a detail shot has that much power.

    Oh, yea- it's a wedding...
    The people shots: all very pretty, great moments. Was it just perfect timing or OCF for the processional shot? Either way, nice work.
    I'd just love to see a couple of romantic portraits to round out the set.

    Hey Smurfy! Thanks, for the kind words. I've been trying to kick it up a notch on my detail work, so you saying that is very encouraging for me. Like many men, the detail shots that the brides like so much aren't always easy for me to see. So, thanks!

    The isle shot with her Dad, is the video guy behind them with his onboard landing strip light, lol. Sometimes it works out for ya though! Funny after reading your last comment I realized that in my little batch of early faves, there aren't really any romantic portatits. These two are not real affectionate like some couples and so I was feeling more pj on this one. We did some though, just not a lot of them. Here are a few more for you, and my client since she likely has the same comment about her preview gallery! Ha!
