Glen Sanders Mansion Winter Wedding

Becky & Pat were married on a BEAUTIFUL February afternoon. Though it was cold, they had some absolutely gorgeous light all day long. Glen Sanders Mansion did an outstanding job once again with the entire afternoon. Mitch Frasier, one of my absolute favorite singer/guitarists played the cocktail hour and DJ'ed the entire reception. Always good to see him, and HEAR him. Do yourself a favor, go to his website and just listen to one of the audio clips! And the florals by Mark Felthousen were just stunning. I had not yet worked a wedding with Mark, but I hope this is the first of many. It's easy to take great photos of flowers and centerpieces when they look so good! The ceremony and reception were great fun, but one of my favorite parts of the wedding day is the hour or two just before the ceremony. Everyone is excited, buzzing about, and I'm trying to keep from getting covered in hairspray... The bridal prep pictures tend to be some of my favorites, just because they are always so spontaneous and purely candid. AND, I get the opportunity to meet the bride's family dog! I had to include this photo, as my fellow photographer, Ray, told me, "that's the cutest dog I've seen in years!" It's always fun to get a glimpse into the bride's life before marriage, and I really think it helps us to connect for the rest of the day. And on a final note ... thank goodness for Pat! It's not every day that you're lucky enough to meet a groom who is truly willing to be photographed, but Pat grinned from ear to ear the entire day long! You only have to look at Becky to know WHY he was smiling. And if you know Becky, then you know why he couldn't stop smiling. I just love being part of these experiences every weekend. It constantly reminds me of how much I love my wife and my wedding day all over again.
