. . . with her permission, of course. :)

As a wedding photographer, having a second shooter affords me the flexibility and coverage I must have to  tell the complete story of a couple’s big day. I reckon it’s time for you to meet my assistant and second shooter for weddings.  Viewers . . . meet Melissa of Melissa Weston Photography; Melissa . . . meet my blog viewers. Aside from shooting with me at weddings, Melissa does family portraits, and she specializes in taking photos of moms with toddlers.

The shots displayed below are of Melissa—she needed some for her website and blog, so we went out last week.

As you can see below, Melissa is a great person to work with—friendly, fun and calm, all at the same time. :)  003_h

I’ve created a new section on my blog called “Album Pages.” In here, I will post pages I have designed for my clients—to give blog viewers the opportunity to see the end product that my customers will cherish forever.

This addition to that section is from Ben & Shadya’s wedding. Click the image below to visit the entire collection of pages I designed from their big day.
Enjoy . . .

Ben & Shadya

April 8, 2009

It was an honor to shoot the wedding for my friends, Ben and Shadya.  They had an amazingly beautiful wedding in a church very dear to Shadya–she grew up going there. Just before the ceremony, Ben wrote a special note for Shadya that was delivered to her by the best man.  Who knows what Ben put in that little line of words??  Her reaction to whatever was inside was hilarious–must have been too sizzling to share. . . .

The ceremony was beautiful–a service led by Ben’s pastor–which had some funny advice from the youth group Ben helped lead .

The reception was held at Avery Ranch Golf Club on a warm evening with a beautiful sunset.  Congratulations, Ben & Shadya!
