Light Walk

Earlier this January we had the opportunity to photograph Scott and Luci at Chapel Dulcinea at night; it was cold and awesome! That place is really something, especially when you have a fantastic evening twilight in the background. We absolutely love the view and the moments we shared there at the wedding. Even though some people believe wedding are more alike than not, I find that every wedding is unique and special and this one was filled with so many fantastic moments. We love weddings!

At the end of the evening my hands were frozen to the camera body, but I figure it was a small price to pay for a beautiful set of photographs commemorating a new marriage!

Last week we put together a day of headshots over at Coffee a Deli on N/ Lamar. It’s a very nice little shop with great ambiance and character, and the owner is wonderful. Besides coffee, the have sandwiches and soups and awesome desserts, all homemade right there. You really should go check them out! We used the front meeting room and took portraits of people who signed up for the special deal. Here are a couple of my favorites:

 

Of course, my grandson had to come by and help, so I grabbed a traditional business headshot for his web page along with all the others. It was easy – he adores lights…

Here is our show booth! We are so ready for the show to start and the opportunity of a great two days of meeting brides and talking about weddings. If you are getting married and haven’t been to one of these then come on down today or tomorrow to the Palmer Event Center, 12-5pm. The Austin Wedding Guide folks put on a great show; hope to see you here!

I was pleased to be a part of a vow renewal for a couple on their 50th wedding anniversary – on Christmas day! It was really cool to see such commitment lived out, and even more so as all the family gathered around and prayed over the couple and blessed them. Times like this are especially moving to me because they demonstrate real commitment in marriage and in life. I think the most awesome part of this particular ceremony was hearing the grandchildren speak such wonderful things about their grandparents; how they had been shaped and helped along in their lives by the love and care shown to them. What a blessing!

Merry Christmas and have a wonderful 2nd 50 years together!
