A big congratulations goes out to Ilana and Michael, who were married one year ago yesterday at Congregation Beth Tikvah, with their fabulously fun reception at Hyatt Regency. Through Ilana I learned of Studio Fovero, where I now get my hair done, so in addition to all the great fun we had photographing their wedding, I gained an amazing stylist!
Here are a few images to mark their day:
Happy Anniversary, Ilana and Michael!!
I’d like to take a moment to send very happy anniversary wishes to Shawnda and Billy, who were married at the Spiritualist Christian Church one year ago yesterday. I remember we had a tornado warning right in the middle of the ceremony, which was a first, but the skies cleared by the time we made our way to the Greek Orthodox hall for the reception and we were able to do some portraits outside. What a lucky day! Congratulations, Shawnda and Billy!
Well, it’s definitely been a season of “this is something I don’t do everyday”, first shooting the bull riding, and now continuing in that vein with some images from Norma and Pete’s wedding last Saturday. I shoot weddings all the time, so you might be asking why I’m saying this is something I don’t do everyday. Well, it’s because, combined, Norma and Pete have graced this planet for 167 years. And what a lucky planet it’s been for that time. Granted, I’ve known Norma and Pete only a very short time, but I am better for it. Never have I met two nicer people and it’s obvious by the love shown to them by family and friends alike that I am not alone in that sentiment.
Please enjoy these images from Norma and Pete’s wedding and luncheon at the Ohio State Bar Association.
Meeting at the “altar”.
A funny moment during the ceremony.
An “overall” of the ceremony room.
The receiving line in the courtyard.
Yummy appetizer.
Calling everyone for group shots.
These women were absolutely delightful. Here, they are plotting their dessert table strategy.
Pete, announcing to all the guests that Norma would recite for them one of her many poems. Obviously, Norma had no idea this was coming.
But, she was a trooper, and regaled everyone with the most wonderful and entertaining recitation.
Guests enjoying the poem too.
Cutting the cake.
They’re just so cute.
The fabulous dessert table. Norma’s friend Gail did an amazing job preparing everything.
And Norma’s friend, Janet, made the amazing floral arrangements. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many beautiful and unusual flowers all at one wedding. Janet has mad skills, definitely!
Congratulations, Norma and Pete!!
