Goodbye, Snow

See you next winter, snow!

Wedding: The Getting Ready Time

My favorite part of a wedding day is when I get to hang out with the bride and/or groom as they primp and preen before the ceremony. The atmosphere is addictive, all charged with anxiety and excitement, yet also relaxed at times. It's a private time, and it always feels like I'm being let in on a secret.

Sometimes, amid the chaos, the bride or groom will stop, take a deep breath, and close their eyes, and you know they're catching a beautiful, calm moment in an otherwise tumultuous day, before they go out and face all their guests and become the center of attention. It's quiet and perfect.
