Sneak Peek!

Here is a sneak peek of Julia and Matt's wedding today!

This is my favorite of the day! I have yet to edit the pictures, I just wanted to share this one!

~ Talitha and Todor ~

In May I had the honor of shooting an Orthodox wedding.
A Bulgarian groom + an American bride = a fun couple!

Shooting time: 24 minutes for the guys, 11 minutes for the girls, 15 minutes for the wedding party and family, and two 15 minute sessions for the bride and groom! If you don't know what that means, I'll tell you.... that is definitely NOT enough time for shooting!!! But I must say, it was a good exercise for instant creativity!





















The difference between boys and girls: this little guy had a hard time standing still...
(He was really cute by the way!)


While this little girl stood for nearly an hour without moving! (She has the cutest smile!)








They used Coke for their toasts!
This is one of my favorite pictures from the entire day!








This guy was an amazing dancer! I don't know how he kept this up!














We were out shooting when a guy handed Todor an American flag. He posed with it and then took off running!

I have another wedding at the end of the month. It's going to be fun! There will be two receptions, one in the morning and the other at 7:00 PM. The bride is guessing that the first reception will be over around 2:30, so we have at least three hours to shoot whatever we want!

~ Pre-EXCEL ~

Last month I had an incredible opportunity to teach for a week in Tennessee! I helped with a girls program (Pre-EXCEL) during the ATI Nashville Conference. I found out four days before the conference that I was going to teach! They were short on teachers and even accepted my older sister to come and help teach. That's big! In order to teach Pre-EXCEL you need to go to EXCEL. Dana hasn't gone to EXCEL, but was accepted anyway! They said she was the first girl they've ever accepted that hasn't gone through EXCEL! Pretty neat!!!
