When I received the e-mail I was floored. Excited. and to be honest, a bit nervous. I wanted to do the best job possible for her. You see, Allison and I went to elementary school together. Back when rolling your jeans was cool, florescent pink was my favorite color, and rollerblading was considered the means of transportation. We hung out in high school going to football games and swapping gossip at our lockers. We graduated from high school over 10 years ago and went off to our respected colleges and professions, and like many, lost touch. Thankfully Facebook reconnected us and we started back in right where we left off.
I was honored when she asked me to photograph her wedding day, and upon meeting Dan, I knew they were perfect for each other. I could tell from the beginning, this man was head over heels for my friend. He respects, honors and cares deeply for her.
Their wedding day was blessed with rain, a lot of it. BUT…. they had the best attitude. They were so awesome and Allison even walked in a field in her wedding dress to get some photos. After the ceremony the rain did die off and we were able to get some absolutely stunning photos of the two of them together. More to come tomorrow, but here are some details of their beautiful day!
Each part of the Hindu ceremony was traditional and very beautiful. The girls carried these down the asile and the maid of honor carried the most extravagant one with the most significance.
The ceremony itself was something I had never expierenced before and it was truly colorful and beautiful.
Karen, very nice work! I love the detail shots! I think rainy days can make the best photos as you have shown here.

Karen, these pictures are amazing. You did such a great job! I love that you got a picture of her pink shoes. 🙂
