Yep

Okay, so after much abuse (both directly and indirectly) I have decided to post again. Hope you're happy. I was incredibly busy. Summertime is here and that means 4 jobs. yes, 4! One of those jobs is wedding photography. I just got back from a week long trip to Texas where last weekend I photographed my first "official" solo wedding. I am happy to report. IT WAS AWESOME. I don't really know how people ever photograph weddings alone...it's stupid. My mom and Dad came along and i'm probably still alive thanks to them. It was hot, and I was running around like mad (totally under control, mind you, but it's a busy time when the wedding starts at 7 and the groomsmen show up at 615 UNDRESSED, and we still have to do pictures! Nevertheless, my mom and I busted out our army voices and all was well.) My Dad kept pumping me full of water and fruit, otherwise I probably would have passed out. (Outside wedding... in Texas ...in June) The place was beautiful, the bride was stunning, and everything went perfectly! PLUS, it was fun to see Aaron, Allison, Noah, Erika, Jen, Cassie, Austin, and Caleb for a short time. I started weeding out some of the 1200 pictures I took over the course of 9 hours, and Ionly erased about 100. Next stop cropping, editing, and whatnot. Had an awesome time spending a few days with my mom and dad. I'm pretty sure that's the longest amount of time I've spent with them alone since before Aaron was born, and it was so great! Dad and I got to see the Yankees play in Houston for Father's day, but not the Astros they didn't bother showing up for the game. Anyway, all is was awesomeFor your viewing pleasure (no wedding pics yet) some shots of Noah I took in May that i forgot to post. He's getting sooo big and as you will see in the pictures has very little personality...oh, wait! Love that kid! anyway, Enjoy!
