melissa & jeff's wedding

i recently shot my friend missy's wedding - she married a fantastic guy named jeff.
their wedding was at the henry ford estate - beautiful! the day was perfect...warm - but not too warm, sunny with big fluffy clouds in the sky - it was gorgeous!

i started off at missy's house, getting some shots of her, her mom and some of her friends getting ready. the morning was actually going pretty smooth until cash (the cat) got out...

i snapped some shots of missy - veil on, hair looking fantastic, searching around outside for cash...


well, of course it drew some attention and soon a few of the neighbors came out to see if they could help. this picture above is of missy - no luck finding cash. until...

phew...one of her neighbors saved the day!
and here's the hand off...

...and once that was all taken care of, cash was locked in a room somewhere (temporarily) and then we got back to business...
all continued going well...the trolley came to pick the girls up. jeff was already at the estate, so that's where we headed next.
i just want to share a few more pictures with you that i feel i was SO lucky to get...
it all took place minutes before the bride was to walk down the aisle...


tension was a little high...some were stressed...nervous, naturally....

when all the sudden (thank you jesus) i got a shot of the mother of the bride pinching the mother of the groom on the bottom right before she was escorted to her seat...

yes, you read it right...pinched her in the bottom. and i must say that it is a moment like that ladies and gentlemen, that if caught on camera.....................priceless.

here it is...


...and the reaction...


thank you.
more serious stuff to come later...
