Ruth & Chris: Married!

Ruth and Chris were married on an bright sunny day in November. It was a gorgeous wedding day with lots of personal touches. I'd have posted this sooner, but with all the holiday madness and an unusual amount of weddings at the end of the year, I got a little behind in the blog. So without further prose, here are some of my favorites from the day.
These are some of my favorite getting dress photos of all year--actually, probably of all time. Ruth just looks so happy!






The church has a bell tower--something you don't see all the time. As Ruth and Chris were walking down the aisle, the flower girls rang the bell together--super cute and a beautiful sound as everyone was leaving the church.


There was actually no photography allowed during the wedding! Lucky for us, the pastor got us a little slack in the rules and we were able to get some shots without flash.

This was my favorite shot that Kevin took--he was shooting through the window, which gave the image it's texture. Most people do this kind of effect in Photoshop, but this is straight out of the camera.


The first dance.

One of my faves...a quiet moment during dancing.

The candy bars have been at several weddings I did this year...Ruth and Chris did s twist on that theme and did a cookie bar. I love edible favors and think they are the way to go. The guests loved filling bags with their favorite varieties and munching on them throughout the night.

Congratulations Ruth and Chris! May you have many years of happiness together!
