The Wedding

It was a cold and rainy Saturday in May. Not what you'd wish for your wedding day! My cousin Steve's son Levi got married today despite the threat of snowflakes falling. With camera in hand we sat towards the back of the church. I was hoping for some candid shots the professional photographer missed.
I was not disappointed.  The very first and smallest gentleman to come down the aisle was the ring bearer carrying  his sippy cup. One look at the packed pews and he had to be coaxed to continue. He cried all the way down the isle, growing louder as he got closer to the front of the church.

In contrast, the little Flower Girl had to be held back from running and skipping down the isle!

I had to be quick with the camera!  The sweet little princess was tearing down the isle so fast! 








Woops!  I think you lost something........

The shoe.  I snapped the photo quickly before the attendant dashed to pick it up!  The Bride and her father were coming down the isle!

Now I know that Dad was having a hard time letting go of his eldest daughter Ashley.  The first to be married.
I know he loves his future son-in-law and all but still,  she's always going to be Daddy's little girl!

The walk down the isle as Mr. and Mrs. Levi Johnston!  They are great kids!  I wish them all the best as they begin their new life together!

  2. Oh Cathy, you captured great photos, like you said, the ones the professional photographer would have missed. They are priceless. The father of the bride looked almost on the verge of crying. At least it didn't appeared to be a long isle to walk down so no time to change their mind, lol. I hope that they live happy ever after. Thanks for sharing. Sorry that the weather was so uncooperative today. JB

  12. Great pictures! It captures men and women perfectly....from the time we're small women are wanting to put on dresses and run down the aisle, while men are crying and hesitating and being pushed down the aisle. FUnny, writing that makes me feel like Carrie Bradshaw from "Sex in the City"

  17. Kate and Wills have nothing on this couple!! Such great pictures. I can bet that yours are better than those of the "official" photographer. May they have a long and happy marriage.
