Jen & Pinckney - October 14, 2006

Update 12/12/06: Images up here! Finally! All 1,582 of them! Whew.

Update 11/25/06: The preliminary album is available for viewing here. Give the software a sec to get going. Enjoy!

Update 10/26/06: I've been ill most of this week so please check back in next week to see an album design. Thanks everybody!

Jen and Pinckney were married at The Basilica of the Sacred Heart, Notre Dame Indiana, amid chilly weather but high spirits. In fact, Jen was a real trooper, requesting lots of outdoor photography even while my fingers were going numb on the shutter release! Hey, who am I to complain... I was in long sleeves; she was the one in the dress! LOL

There was a large focus on family, from the formals to the reception, and all the cocktails in between... this lucky couple can count on all the support anyone could want throughout the years.

I'll have a preliminary album design up next, in the meantime click on the images below to view them at a larger size...

The Basilica:



All smiles!


The moment arrives...



One from inside the Basilica... so amazing...

A nice moment with Jen and Pinckney:


Wide angle lenses can be a little wacky, but I like it!


A good one of John...


Congratulations!


A nice candid from the trolley:


Showin' off that bling! LOL!


The art gallery was the perfect setting for some mingling...


There are many, many more of this little one to come!






Jen and her dad:


Gettin' the party started...


And keepin' it goin'!


Check back soon!

Sometimes I feel bad mentioning the weather when writing about a wedding because there are obviously so many other good things to say, but when you get a PERFECT day in October... in Indiana... it's something to write home about!

I worked with Jen and Lanette, who is new with us and did a fine job, and had a great bridal party to keep things going. Michelle made such a beautiful and patient bride, and I don't think she stopped smiling all day! Thanks to Gary and the families as well for making my work day so enjoyable.

I've got so many good images, so here are fifteen or so until I can get an album designed. Check back next week!

Aren't these two cute?


The girls...


A few last-minute alterations.


A cool elevator shot...


I like the colors and light in this one:


More of those blue dresses...


Michelle gets a lift to the wedding:


Gary and the guys.


That's a long aisle, LOL!


That beautiful weather:










Maybe the shoe toss will become tradition!
