This is David and Malerie. We go back. I've known them both since high school and really never would have guessed that I would one day be shooting their wedding! Well actually, a month ago I had no idea I would be shooting their wedding. Here's the thing....Just a few weeks ago, Malerie was with me in Arizona second shooting Cynthia and Aaron's wedding. During this time she told me about how her fiancee David(who is in the army and currently living in Texas) would be coming out in a couple of weeks and they had plans to elope at the courthouse and she would be moving to Texas with him in the months to follow. I was pretty surprised when I got a phone call from her a week later saying that they were going to be having a small ceremony the following week and she HAD to have me there to shoot it. I don't know how they pulled it all together so quick, but it was beautiful! The whole arrangement worked in my favor because since they were having a small dinner after, rather than a large reception, I was given as much time with them as I wanted for portraits....I was basically in heaven. Here's a few of my favorites(which were very, very hard for me to choose).
I can't even describe what it was like to be around them, having spent such a large amount of their relationship miles apart, they couldn't get enough of eachother. Everytime I turned my back they were giggling and whispering to eachother. So cute...
Once we had gotten all of the "formal" shots done, we decided it would be pretty cool to have David remove his jacket and show off his ink...
David insisted that Malerie wear her glasses in some of the photos. If he had things his way, she would have walked down the aisle in them! I love this shot...
Congratulations you guys! Malerie, I am going to miss you when you leave for Texas, please come back and visit a lot!
