Day 76 - Memories from Our Big Day
I'm cheating... again. I obviously didn't take these photos, but I wanted to give a shout out to our rockin' wedding photographers, Elizabeth and Vincent Pugliese of - fittingly - Elizabeth Vincent Photography. They did a fantastic job at our wedding, and I haven't done them justice. They sent us our images quite a while ago, and I just haven't had time to get around to doing much with them yet, so please accept my apologies, Elizabeth & Vincent!!
Being a photographer, it's an interesting thing having to select somebody else to photograph your own wedding day. I'm admittedly a bit of a control freak [read: I have an unhealthy obsession] when it comes to photography, so I didn't know how I'd act on the big day. Would I spend the day thinking Ooh, this would be a good shot, or I hope they're getting this cool look on my face, or this would be a better composition if we were over there... the list goes on and on. But you know what, when the wedding day finally got here, all those things melted away and I was able to just focus on Kylie and that moment and significance in our lives, and part of that was because Elizabeth & Vincent had such a confident and professional aura about them that I knew they would take care of us and our images from this precious day. And they did just that. You know one of the ways you can tell you've got a good wedding photographer? You don't notice them most of the day. Without looking at our ceremony and reception photos, I couldn't tell you where they were during those times. They just blended into the background. Thanks guys for being so awesome on our wedding day! If you live anywhere remotely close to Indiana and need someone to capture your wedding, check them out. Here's just a few of my favorites from the day. I'll post more when I get a chance. I love this first image because of the feelings and thoughts running through my head at the time. Kylie and I chose to see each other before the wedding so we could have a special, emotional, private moment before the ceremony and so that we could do all the formals prior to the ceremony so that we could go right to the reception afterwards. I highly recommend this to anybody that asks about it. Anyway, I had heard the door to the sanctuary open behind me, and I was so excited to see my bride-to-be. I knew she would be beautiful, but she took my breath away. She was perfect. |
I think we were laughing because it was so freakin' cold outside and we were finally warm again in the back of our stylin' '57 Chevy. the high was something like 28 that day. |
Even after having already seen Kylie before the ceremony, I still got a little chocked up when I saw her coming down the aisle. |
Our first kiss as husband and wife. |
Our first dance. |
Thanks again Elizabeth & Vincent! You guys were great! |
