Allison and Jamie: A Preview.

View on ExposureRoom

Horses and "The Look". Those were the two requests Allison had for us on the documentation of her wedding day. The couple first met on a horse ranch in South Dakota, so getting married at a horse ranch was a no-brainer. They also wouldn't be seeing each other before the ceremony, so it was very important to Allison that we capture Jamie's first sight. I don't think I've ever seen a more earnest expression of love on a groom's face as Jamie looked at Allison. Thanks so much, Allison and Jamie, for sharing your day with us.

NOTABLES
I really can't say enough about the fantastic job Claire Kiamie and her team from One Fine Day did. Planning an outdoor wedding is always tricky because of the weather, but Claire handled everything that was thrown at her, and in a manner that allowed EVERYONE (including the vendors) to enjoy the day! We finally got the chance to shoot alongside our good friends Renee and Will Reedy from Renee Reedy Photography & Video. While Renee is an uber-talented photographer, Will is a fellow videophile, so he and I are always geeking out to tech stuff when we're around each other. Renee was even kind enough to loan him out to help me pull off a couple of shots :-). Be sure to check out Renee's blog to see a sampling of the amazing stills these two pulled! Ashley from THE TWISTED TWIG (662.236.9411) masterfully handled the floral design and Allison Becksfort from PAVO SALON (901.818.0773) took care of the hairstyling. The ceremony and reception were both held at Oak Hill Stables, which is fast becoming one of my favorite places to shoot.
