SUCH a fun dress!

St st st st stunning!!!!

Meanwhile…

Kate’s dad 🙂

We’ve photographed a LOT of weddings in bad weather… but I’m going to have to say that this day was the grossest of the gross. Thickest clouds in the history of mankind. NO sun, rain all day… gray, cold… just plain gross.  We were shooting in Gloomtown, USA. When I asked Kate about going outside… she was a bit reluctant…. I promised we’d keep her dry… she said she trusted me… and boy oh boy are we glad she did!  I LOVE these photos! 😀   So, off to the first parking garage we could find 😀 These bridesmaids were troopers… you can’t tell, even a little bit, that it was FREEEEEZING!

WACKY BOBBI STRIKES AGAIN!

Kate and Chris got married in November in Evansville (different time zone where the sun sets at 4:30. Because they wanted daylight photos, they chose to see each other before the ceremony. Boy oh boy am I glad they did!  Kate, your eyes are the some of the most beautiful blue eyes I’ve ever seen. You’re so pretty 🙂

Mike’s favorite ❓

…totally worth it!

Gettin’ married time! Chris, your reaction to Kate walking down the aisle was pure perfection! Reminded me of Mike on our wedding day 🙂

such a sweet ceremony…

After they said their I do’s we headed into the awesome theater for a few more photos 😀

Are you KIDDING me?! Favorite, duhtown… ❗

Marriage is the coolest.

Bet you’re wondering why they call him that… Lucky for you, I’m going to tell you 😀 But not until you get to the end-ish of the blog entry.  CLIFFHANGER! 😉

We brought our unboxed photobooth with us.  I don’t usually blog photos from it but this one’s a little different.  Here’s Kate with her grandma… she passed away less than two weeks after this photo was taken.  I can’t imagine. Kate and family… sending big hugs your way.

kate+chris

What was the most memorable moment of your day?
kate: definitely the ceremony.  It was the most personal and emotional experience of my life.
chris: My most memorable moment had to be when the music started for Kate to walk down the aisle. Once I heard it, I started to lose it. I couldn’t even keep it together until she got to the aisle.

What was your favorite detail?
kate: Just one??  I loved my dress, the photos on the altar, and the handmade birds that we used to decorate the ceremony and reception.
chris: The sweet photographers we ended up with. 😉 HIGH FIVES FRIEND! 😀

Any advice for future bride/grooms?
kate: make sure you (and your husband-to-be) make the important decisions together. In the end, the day is all about the two of you
chris: For grooms, be quiet and do whatever is necessary to make your bride’s day perfect regardless of what it takes.

Funniest memory from your wedding day?
Mark (the officiant) forgetting our rings. I felt horrible for him but I think it made for a special moment when we exchanged rings with our wedding party watching after the ceremony. It also makes for a great story.

If you could do it all over, would you change anything?
kate: maybe would have done a rain dance that morning
chris: I can’t think of a single thing that I would change. It was perfect in my eyes.

Where did you go on your honeymoon?
We went to New York and stayed at the Library Hotel. It was amazing!

 

Saundra… this just might be the the most well composed bride+groom+bobbi+mike shot to date! By the way…While we were able to keep Kate and Chris sheltered from the rain… not so much the case for us. 🙂

BOBBI BRIDES! kate+bobbi+niki. Oh and Niki… thanks for coming down to our level 🙂 (she’s 6′ tall…)

Here’s your answer… THAT’S why they call him that!  One of the best doppelgangers I’ve seen!

Me, doin’ my thing. 😀

Yes I’ve lost weight since I’ve bought this suit so yes, I have saggy ass pants. Please… don’t judge me 😉

The sweetest of the sweet.
