THE GROOM; THE MANY FACES AND MOODS OF BRIAN !!




We always tell our brides and grooms that on the wedding day, the bride is the main course. The groom, well he is the condiment on that day! I say it with tongue planted in cheek, although not firmly planted in cheek!! There are all types of brides and grooms; nervous, serious, playful, tense but all of them totally in love. 

Today I'm going to concentrate on the groom. Today he is the main course!!! What better groom to highlight than Brian, the groom from a wedding we photographed a few weeks ago. Brian was a lot of fun to photograph that day and as I hope you can see from the images, he had a great sense of humor. Many times the groom and his groomsmen are not very comfortable in front of the camera but not the case with Brian. He was comfortable and seemingly relaxed the whole day.

 Here are some images of Brian taken on his wedding day. 

Here is Brian and his dad relaxing a few hours before the ceremony.


This is a great reason why the bride's dad should stay with the groom till the ceremony!! Just in case he gets a case of cold feet!!!



After awhile Brian started to get dressed. Perhaps a little nervous but not really showing signs of it!



I think it took some deep self reflectiveness and some meditation techniques but Brian calmed right down !!




              As you can see Brian was once again calm and serene!!




Who really knows what is in anyone's mind in a moment like this. Possibly thinking of what a great day it is and what a lucky guy he is??




Okay, enough fun at Brian's expense. Let's just look at the rest of his day told in a few images of ours!!




                It is a long day and a guy does get hungry !!



                               No words can do this justice!!




                       Someone want to get Brian a snack!! 





Brian is finding out early that a wife will keep you on your toes. One way or the other!!







Hey Brian, I hope you don't mind me having a little fun with you today through our images!! 


Brian (as well as Anna) were great to work with the whole day and made our job easy!! When two people are so in love and so comfortable with each other, it makes us lucky to be in a great field!! Once again thank you both !!!!! Our wish for both of you is that your life becomes all that you want it!!

OUR NEW MARKETING WEDDING ALBUM USING IMAGES FROM ANNA AND BRIAN'S WEDDING

We have sample wedding albums that we use to show couples when we first meet with them. This allows them to see what our style of photography is like and what the albums are all about. Recently, we decided to have a new sample album made reflecting our Florida weddings. We decided to use images from Anna and Brian's wedding day. This is not their album. I will design that after they have had time to decide which of the images they would like in their album. 


In our packages the albums usually have around ten double spreads which equals twenty pages. This album has more like eighteen double spreads or thirty-six pages. A couple can add as many pages as they like at a charge of $12.00 for a double spread.


We hope you enjoy seeing the album made from the wonderful wedding day of two really great people, Anna and Brian Rinner.

IMAGES AT A SUNSET ON THE BEACH: FROM ANNA AND BRIAN RINNER WEDDING

We had the extreme pleasure of photographing Anna and Brian Rinner's wedding in Florida. The ceremony was held on a beach in Naples. After the ceremony, we photographed some formals on the beach, including a portrait session with just Anna and Brian.  When you have a madly in love couple like these two and a beautiful beach at sunset in Florida, it spells romance!!! The sun was setting and the tide was just right and it all added to the romance.


If you're ever looking for a reason to have a destination wedding and not leave the USA, then Florida is an excellent choice.  It just shouts ROMANCE!!


Enjoy our images of Anna and Brian.

A FEW VIDEOS OF ANNA AND BRIAN'S WEDDING DAY

The first video is of the getting ready part of the wedding day. This is always lots of fun and with this wedding it was even more fun then usual.





The second video includes the couple's first look at each other and some images taken at the hotel before the ceremony. We loved photographing the first look and then we captured some fun images of their family and friends.

THE GROOM'S FIRST LOOK AT HIS LOVELY BRIDE

At some of our weddings the bride and groom, with our encouragement,  decide to see each other before the ceremony.  We think it is a great idea and presents a wonderful memory for each. Traditionally, the groom sees the bride at the very beginning of the ceremony and that is also a great memory. The difference is that by seeing her before the ceremony, they both have a private moment to tell each other what they are feeling. That moment can last as long as they want, not just a few seconds. 


We have the groom standing alone, looking away from where the bride is approaching him. She walks up to him, taps him on the shoulder and he turns. Standing there is this beautiful woman with whom he'll be spending the rest of his life. We photograph the moment 7 to 10 feet away, allowing them the privacy to tell each other what is in their hearts, at this moment. 

We wanted to share this moment that were so privileged to witness. This was a beach wedding and that is why Brian is not dressed in a more formal manner.


Here are the images from Anna and Brian's first look.
