There may have been a language between us and the family but with the universal language of joy and the smiles that go along with it, one would hardly notice!

My List of Wedding DO's as Inspired by Jehudi and Irela:

*Hey bridesmaids! DO surprise your bride with a little ditty. Maybe a dance to "Dancing Queen" complete with colorful feather boas? Too cute! :)

*You may need to keep dinner a little more intimate but if you can, DO invite the masses to come late and boogie the night away with you.

*M&M's as a favor? Oh yes, it's a DO! I love me some M&M's.

Irela and Jehudi and family (Abby I must mention you specifically because your enthusiasm was infectious! Love that!) thank you all so much for being such wonderfully warm people and including us in your day. Have a great trip to Chile'!

We took our little Mini Cooper 4x4ing to get these shots and not only was it worth it for the pics but it was an adventure and I love adventures :)

Kris was Rebecca's big brothers friend and baseball team co-player. Rebecca's mom said she knew something was up when Rebecca started showing up at every game... when her presence in the past was non-existent ;) Funny how boys can get us to do things we wouldn't normally do! Now here these 2 are all in love, grown up and getting married!

I'll keep it short for these 2 sweeties... the love each other, they love their precious little girl and they really seem to love life. All together now... awwww....

My List Of Wedding DO's as inspired by Christine and Donnie:

*Being easy going is always a DO. And these guys oozed "easy going"

*Silly faces that your photographer will just love posting in the teasers=a DO!

*Donning a stunning flowy lacy gown and topping it with fun, bouncy curls? It's a DO!

*Hiring us as your photographers and knowing that you got it right=a big fat DO! :)

Thank you guys so much for including us in your day!

2 days, 2 wedding ceremonies, 3 dresses + 1 fantastic couple = amazing photos!

We were honored to shoot this couple who not only seem to be in love but had 2 rockin' wedding ceremonies!

My Wedding Do's as Inspired by Kathy and Andy:

*DO love each other so much that you get married twice. ;) The started things of with a tradtional Lao ceremony. Kelly and I loved this! It was full of honor AND life... sadly, this can be a rarity when it comes to wedding ceremonies.

*Get married at Hotel ZaZa- DO it! This hotel is just ridiculously cool... its very stylish.. its like renaissance and Vogue magazine had a baby, love it! A lot of their wall decor consists of high fashion photos. I am a photographer so obviously I loved this!!

*Smashing cake in face=a DO. Most couples are far too nice ;)

*if you happen to have a nephew who does this strangely adorable dance, DO put him on the dance floor. I wish I was video. It was... awesome :)

*DO DO DO hire us to shoot your wedding. Cuz we're cool, and totally awesome.. oh and ya we take some pretty kickin' photos :D

Congrats Andy and Kathy!!!

I know it's highly unoriginal of me to say but - we have the best couples EVER! Kelly and I are pretty laid back people who happen to love photography so I think we attract like-minded people (soooo if you are a bridezilla and hate photographs you probably won't like us ;))... Alison and Spencer are about as chill as they come... they just wanted to enjoy their special day with family and close friends.. oh an maybe get some fantastic photos to boot ;)

My List Of Do's (you know missed it, so I am bringing it back) as inspired by Alison and Spencer:

*DO find the balance of loving the camera and loving the moment. Alison did this well, she knew where I was but she stayed in the moment.. enjoying guests and taking in the moments around her.

*Live band at a cool Jazz nightclub for your reception?? YUP, its a DO!! If you haven't checked out Sambuca's yet might I urge you to do so? STAT?!

*Squeezing in a "Thank You" card pic to hand out later to guests= A DO!

Spencer, Alison and family; thank you so much for sharing your day with us!
