Andy and Stacey — The Wedding

Weddings, Portraiture, Relationships, Kentucky, Bridges Christian Church, Nolte Farm, Russell No Comments »

Andy and Stacey were married June 28, 2008.  I had a great time spending the day with their families and friends.  I am not sure if I have laughed so much at a wedding before and I tend to have fun at all of my weddings and laugh when something is funny.  But their brothers were true comedians.  They decorated Andy’s car and then when they found out we were actually going to use Stacey’s to take pictures after the reception they decorated hers as well.  To view their preview slide show click here. Here are a few of my favorites.

Thank you Stacey and Andy for making me a part of your day.  Have fun on your honeymoon.

My little brother got married on June 11, 2008 in Daytona Beach, Florida.  We couldn’t be there, so when he and his new wife, my new sister-in-law Melissa, came for a quick visit, I seized the opportunity to do a post wedding session with them and a family portrait of their new family.  They are so cute together.  To view their slide show click here. Here are some of my favorites.  You will notice a couple of familiar faces in at least one or two shots.  My kids had to jump into a few pictures with their new cousins.  Melissa has two kids, a boy and girl.  Maya was thrilled when she learned that there was another girl so she is no longer the only girl but really bummed when she found out we also added another boy.  So, she is still out numbered.  Oh well, she will adjust.

I couldn’t resist taking a picture of Connor.  Actually he asked.  Since my kids rarely ask me to take their pictures or sit still for me to take their pictures, when I have a chance, I go for it.  He looks so much older but he is still my baby.

Congratulations you two!  And Melissa, welcome to the family.

Kamilah and Damola got married on June 14, 2008 and it was a great day for a wedding.  Several of Damola’s family member from Nigeria even flew in for the wedding.  It was a great day with lots of tradition on both sides of their families.  After the cake cutting and bouquet toss, both Damola and Kamilah changed in their Nigerian clothing that Damola’s mom had made for them.  I loved the textures and designs.  To view their preview slide show click here. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from their day.
