I had the pleasure of shooting 2 weddings this past weekend, the first of them being with Maria & Bubba! I don’t normally photograph weddings on my birthday, but when I first met Maria, I just couldn’t say no to her…. aside from a little rain, it turned out to be a great day and a fun wedding :)
One challenge of shooting weddings from September til the end of the year is the fact that it gets dark much earlier than usual, which can make outdoor portraits difficult unless the couple is deciding to see each other before the ceremony. For those of you blog stalkers still planning out the details of your wedding, we recommend planning to see each other beforehand, or having the ceremony earlier in the afternoon to give time for this. Since it was pretty dark after the ceremony, we decided to go for some cool night shots (some of my favorite stuff to shoot!) Maria & Bubba were great to work with and we always have such a great time working at the Franklin Plaza (exceptional service and food)…. I always want to give props to one of my favorite DJ’s, who made the party, Chris Hollister of Cool Cat Dj!

Congrats to Maria & Bubba and all the best in their new marriage…. be sure to leave them some love & comments below!
P.S. Stay tuned for Nicole & Joe’s wedding coming up next……
