\u2022 \u00a0I must admit, I was very nervous to shoot this wedding. \u00a0Before every wedding I get a bit of butterflies (I think we all do!) but this one was more than usual. \u00a0Why? \u00a0Because I was shooting a photographer’s daughters wedding. \u00a0Bob and his wife Carol<\/a> I later found out interviewed 25 (!) photographers before hiring me for their daughters wedding, talk about pressure!<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00a0This wedding was at the beginning of the hot & humid streak of July. \u00a0While it didn’t hit 100\u00ba it did feel like it and EVERYONE was dripping in sweat. \u00a0These guys were fantastic though and even the bridesmaid that is pregnant with twins didn’t complain a wink about taking pictures.<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00a0From the very beginning Chrissanna warned me she wasn’t your typical bride. \u00a0She likes to go barefoot and didn’t want a stuffy wedding. \u00a0She wanted to be able to play in her dress and have fun… and have fun she did! \u00a0I had so much fun with these guys!<\/p>\n

\u2022 \u00a0What makes events the most special is when people are able to make it that you were worried wouldn’t. \u00a0In this case, Chrissanna’s grandmother had a heath scare the week before the wedding but she rallied and was able to attend the wedding. \u00a0I am so glad that she was able to be there, she was beaming from ear to ear all day long.<\/p>\n

Wedding Vendors<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Catering: \u00a0Chenoweth Golf Course & Banquet Hall<\/a>
\nCeremoy: \u00a0The Chapel at University of Akron<\/a>
\nCupcakes: \u00a0Pure Delite Cupcakes<\/a> (two thumbs up from me!)
\nDJ: \u00a0Ohio Elegance <\/a>
\nFlorist: \u00a0Pam Cole
\nReception: Wingfoot Lake State Park<\/a><\/p>\n

\"prayerPrior to the ceremony, the priest came in and they said a prayer. \u00a0I love, love, love Chrissanna’s grandmothers holding hands in the front. \u00a0They held hands most of the day and I’ll admit, I teared up seeing it. \u00a0So precious!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"flowerAnother precious moment was when one of the flower girls put her dancing skills on display as she not only dropped petals but twirled down the aisle. \u00a0She spun the entire span of the aisle, dropping petals as she went. \u00a0SO precious!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideSuch a pretty venue!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideLove teary moments!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"bubbleBubble exits are hit or miss depending on the wind and location. \u00a0Robert and Chrissanna lucked up with a perfect bubble exit where the wind just was blowing enough to capture the bubbles in air but not take them away.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"batWhile opening doors to the\u00a0pavilion, this bat fell out and onto the ground. \u00a0He’s too cute isn’t he? \u00a0One of the groomsman ended up picking him up and taking him to a tree to continue his sleep. \u00a0I think this is the first time I’ve ever seen a bat this close!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"bridalOne of the pictures that the bride and groom definitely wanted was of the entire bridal party on swings. \u00a0There was a large set near the pavilion for the reception so we lucked out!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"groomsman Robert and his men taking a stroll.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideI love the way their look all combined with the flowers and dresses!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideChrissanna wanted an image of her twirling in her gown!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"bridalThe entire bridal party outside at Wingfoot Lake.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideI really love this image of them as they walked towards the next photo spot.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideFavorite!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideAnother favorite<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideYour eyes do not\u00a0deceive\u00a0you, that would be the bride doing a cartwheel as her entrance into the reception. \u00a0Isn’t she awesome!?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"weddingI didn’t get a long time to play with the rings but I did love this image I was able to capture of the rings.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideThe bride and groom had a choreographed swing dance for their first dance, it was so fun to watch!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"fatherSuch a lovely father daughter dance!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"motherRobert has such a great smile!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"groomThey danced together all night long and there were plenty of dips which made sure I captured it from many angles, this being my favorite!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideChrissanna’s grandmother didn’t make it to the reception in time to see her cartwheel entrance so she did it again just for her! \u00a0Notice the ONE hand AND not showing of anything that shouldn’t be seen? \u00a0I’m impressed!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"brideIt isn’t often that I stay until the end and if I do it is VERY rare that in Ohio we have official sendoffs of the couple but this wedding there was an exit and I was there to photograph it, fun!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thanks for hiring me! \u00a0I had a wonderful time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
