Stacey & Glen, June 24, 2006

Update 7/11/06: Wedding images are up here!

Update 6/28/06: Well, I promised Stacey a beautiful album, and I'm really excited for her to see the design. So many great images led me to design a fairly large album, it was so much much fun telling this story with photos! Click here and wait a moment for it to get going. Let me know what you think!

Wow, what a day for a wedding! Perfect weather, an UNBELIEVABLE church and a beautiful couple! My first time shooting at Meridian Street Methodist Church in Indianapolis, and I was simply blown away by the photographic opportunities of the church. We also spent some time as a group shooting downtown before moving on to the Hyatt.

The reception was great as well, with one of the best looking cakes I've seen in awhile. Lots of party atmosphere with dancing, smiles and lots of fun. Thanks to the bridal party for helping me make some gorgeous (I think) photos for Stacey and Glen, thanks and congratulations to the newlyweds and their families.

Some favorites until I get an album design up... click the images to view them at a larger size.

The Mason Family: Kids!

My sister Melissa visited from Austin, TX a little while back and of course we wanted to do some photos of all the kids. So, Along with Aaron and Tennesse is their cousin Daniel as well as their cousins who live here in Lafayette.

These are from an evening at Columbian Park, it was fun to see the adults playing and having a good time, too.

Laura & Josh, June 17, 2006 (with Tom)

This week's wedding was unique in that Tom and I were hired to shoot together. This was a fairly large wedding so it was decided that we'd split up for most of the day. I began with the arrival of the groomsmen and a few shots of them. Later we concentrated on capturing the ceremony from different perspectives. From them on my role was candids... so alot of my images aren't based around the core activities of the day. I think it will be nice for Laura and Josh to look back at the images from throughout the day and see what their guests and friends were doing.

Some favorites of mine, click to view them at a larger size. Congratulations!














and what I think is my very favorite:

I shot at the Stockwell United Methodist Church for the second time this weekend, and was very pleasantly surprised. When I shot there last it was an outdoor ceremony on the gazebo, which this wedding was planned for, but rain moved us indoors. Nevertheless, several great looking areas in the church and a great looking couple gave me plenty to work with!

Thanks to Jaclyn, Andrew and all the family for turning this rainy wedding day into something very special!

Here's some favorites for now, I'll be working on the album soon, so stay tuned. Click the images to view them at a larger size.

This one I like... can't put my finger on it exactly...


This red wall was a surprise inside the church...


Killer silhouettes are a current exercise I'm working on...

Update 6/16/06: Wedding images up here!

Update 6/14/06: Hopefully the proofs will be up this evening... stay tuned...

Update 6/8/06: Well, Timi and Matt's wedding certainly is beautiful, but I didn't expect an album design to flow so freely and quickly. I've really got some favorites and I can't wait for everyone to see it... so click here, and give it a minute to do its thing...

Last week's wedding was at Trinity United Methodist here in Lafayette. A very nice church to shoot in, I especially like the balcony, which circles nearly 360 degrees of the church! We had great weather and a great group to work with - bridesmaids who were willing to play in traffic for me! : )

Here are a few images while I'm working on the album and edits, click the images to view larger.
