Kim & Josh got hitched!

I have never laughed so much at a wedding. Without a doubt the craziest wedding we have ever photographed. Isaac and I had so much fun this past Saturday photographing Kim & Josh's wedding at the Red Mill Inn in Baldwinsville. Kim called me 9 days before her wedding in a panic looking for a photographer last minute. Luckily Isaac and I had planned to take that weekend off and we were available to shoot their wedding the following weekend. I can't believe we didn't know these two before we got to their wedding, because it feels like we have known them for a long time. We just clicked!
I showed up about 2 hrs before the ceremony to hang out with the girls while they got ready. I was able to get them outside before the ceremony started to get some fun photos. Isaac went off with the guys while they drank a bottle of Whiskey and got ready. The ceremony was held at Little Utica Church in Phoenix. What a cute little church. After pictures at the church we met up at the Red Mill Inn in Baldwinsville to take photos on the island. What a great time we had! I love fun photo shoots where the bridal party lets loose and really has fun. The guys even wanted photos taken with the porta-potties... can you believe it was their idea!
The party started inside once we were done. The food by Lock 24 was great, the cake by Jeff Hoefer was amazing (and it tasted awesome!!!) and the music by Cornell Bennett of Ithaca was "bumping". What a party crowd! It won't be until you see all of the photos that you will be able to understand the sheer craziness that went on. Sign up here to be notified when the photos are ready in 3 weeks

Thank you Kim & Josh for letting us be a part of your day. We can't wait to see you guys again. Enjoy these preview photos. Also to let everyone know Isaac started his teaching job today so if you are waiting for photos or albums it will be a tiny delay until I get used to working by myself during the day. We are thinking about hiring an office assistant. Also I am going on a missions trip to the Dominican Republic from October 3rd to October 11th. So no one will be in the office then. I will try to get as much done as possible before I leave.

Drinking Whiskey. I love this shot Isaac captured from far away.


The beautiful bride. She was smiling about something.


The girls beforehand. Each dress was altered to add the blue accent piece. What a cool idea.


Mr. & Mrs. Exiting with bubbles.

I believe this was the groom's idea.


Tender kiss during a private moment before the craziness of the reception started.


I love reflections. It was such a gorgeous day, we were not sure how this puddle ended up here as the ground was completely dry. The Red Mill is such a great place to have a wedding. So many photo opps outside.

One of the bridges in Baldwinsville. I love architecture as well.


First dance moment. What a cute couple.


The sunet was gorgouse. I love the color of the sky.


On our way up to their room for a mini-photo session I took this photo of them in the elevator.


Um.... Another great idea of the bride and groom. I can't believe no one got hurt. There was a workout room right across the hall from the ballroom so they decided it would be run to get a shot of them "running" away together.
