Hi Dave and Janin,
Here are a few thumbnails of
the wedding photos I got. These 19 are the ceremony-related group. Click on
a thumbnail to see the full-sized image. My theory was that this would be a way
to show off the pictures I got to you; you could download, clean up and
print any you wanted. (Or take some time and compose a real
website.) Making HTML took a lot more time than I'd bargained on, so I'll
just do these and then get you a CD with everything.
There's also a group of posed pictures, one of guests (I think I got everybody,) a 'general ambiance' set and then funny (to me) set. I got 56 shots that I'm not completely ashamed of. But check with me again after I've taken another hundred pictures - I will be. I'd better get these to you now before my critical eye takes over.
It didn't dawn on me until the ceremony was under way, that I could give you pictures without actually violating your request that we not give you gifts. (That's why I have very few pictures of the ceremony itself.) Anyway, I hope you enjoy them.
Preparations
Alexis has finished sprinkling petals by the time the photographers are ready.
my only reasonable picture of the ceremony; can anyone else fill in?
One of several images of the family after the ceremony. A professional wedding photographer would make sure everyone's eyes are functioning correctly before snapping the shutter.
