The Weddings of 2012

So, the whole reason for me coming up to Michigan during the summer was to second shoot a few weddings with my amazing partner in crime, Cindy, owner of Peach Moon Photography.  Well, and to visit family..but ya know.
Now something you should know: photographing weddings scares the bejesus out of me.  I put so much pressure on myself knowing that this is it, my one shot, if I screw up, these people lost the documentation of one of the most important days of their lives. Cindy on the other hand, she was gung-ho, lets do it, We. Got. This.  In reality, we did discuss our nerves before the shooting began at the first wedding of the summer.

The first wedding of the summer was, in all honesty, the best wedding for us to start out on. Not saying we did a poor job or anything like that!  Just that the schedule ran perfect, and the bride, Theresa, was super laid back, and the bridesmaids even had some great image ideas! It was a fun night!

The second wedding was a little bit trickier. Definitely kept us on our toes and moving!  I had a brain fart the night before and forgot to charge my battery for my camera (seriously-who does that!?) and I missed some AMAZING shots of the bride & groom in downtown Spring Lake..I'm pretty jealous of the images Cindy was able to capture there!  All in all, we ended up getting some GREAT shots-and we even got to photograph them at the Cinema-where they met (awe!).

And last but not least the third, and my last wedding of the season.  I did remember to charge my battery the night before this wedding!  The bride, Autumn, was very detailed on what she wanted and where she wanted it-Awesome! Totally made our job a little bit easier.  The forecast was calling for rain that day, luckily it held out until after the reception started, but we did have a nice little overcast for the images we got at the beach.  We were nervous thinking we'd have to shoot in full sun while there-not the case!

On to the images!  By the way, if you are a soon to be bride researching, looking for a photographer for next summer, and like what you see, definitely check out Peach Moon Photography's site and get a hold of Cindy for information!  I just might be back to second shoot again next summer!
