My First "Real" Wedding

Well, I have done a few weddings before for family and friends but this is the first wedding I did that I was actually "hired" so I was a little more nervous this time. However, it turned out ok, my camera worked fine, I didn't really get overwhelmed, and I was even ok talking to people (that is my biggest fear about photography). I was pleased with some of the photos and the bride was thrilled with them so that is what counts the most. I took like 800 photos which was way too many because I kept snapping pictures of the same things just to make sure I got it, I only ended up showing 400 of them which is still a lot for a relatively small wedding but I'd rather have too many than not enough. It took hours and hours and days and days to photoshop all of them and I think I will get better as I get more practice, but for now, this is my work. I have picked out some of my favorites but I will post the flickr page that has all of the photos once I am done uploading them so that you can see them all if you'd like. Thanks for looking and leave a comment to tell me what you like or don't like about any of them. Thanks!

Here are some recent photos of our new baby, 'Mater! He is such an adorable, bi fat baby and he just turned three months. We have named him a million things and most the time just resorted to calling him puppy but I think it has now officially been decided that his name is 'Mater, like tomater without the "to."
