Wedding Bells

Last Saturday Jon's cousin Kyle got married. The bride and groom had asked me months ago to take pictures of the girls getting ready because they weren't hiring a photographer (Jon's Dad and Sister took pictures of the ceremony and reception). I was super nervous about the gig, because as I pointed out to them several times I'm not a photographer and haven't even ever taken a class or read a book. They still wanted my help so I spent the day with the ladies getting ready and tried to capture some of the special moments leading up to the ceremony. Below are some of my favorite shots.

 

 

 

It was a lovely day and so much fun getting Jon's whole family together. I left a little early to relieve my parents who were watching Reed, but by all accounts the party continued for quite a while and was a great celebration. I really wanted to stay longer, but after everything that had happened earlier in the week I also really wanted to be home with my baby boy. Before I took off Jon and I managed to get a few pictures together to prove that we still clean up fairly well.

 

 

The Mother of the Groom was Harold's sister Lynette and somehow I managed to get a rare picture of the two of them hugging. Aren't they adorable?
