Before the wedding starts...

We've been working on Kim and Paul's wedding album, Finally, all the prints are off at our bindery, Art Leather. This is one of my favorite images from the wedding day. We were in a quiet hallway just outside the sanctuary as Kim and her dad waited to walk down the aisle. My heart was pounding (like it always does when the church is full and everyone is looking over their shoulder to get a glimpse of the bride.) Kim had the calmness of a saint. She just took a breath and bowed her head. I don't know if she was praying or just collecting her thoughts. Regardless of what she was thinking, I thought she was supremely beautiful and was glad to be there with a camera.

Senior Portrait

This handsome young fellow is Will Patterson, a senior at Richmond Christian School. His mom and dad asked me if our studio did Senior Portraits, and I said, "of course!" Call me old fashioned, but I wish kids would dress like this more often. It's his dad's tuxedo jacket. He certainly is dressed to impress.
