Three's

This past weekend I photographed a wedding in Miami on Friday, and flew back to Bozeman on Saturday morning to photograph Theresa and Keith's wedding. They knew of my schedule and were comfortable knowing that if I didn't make it back Barbel, one of my associates, would photograph the wedding. I had photographed Keith's two sisters' weddings and they asked me to take their photos also. It is the first time that I have done three out of the four siblings' photographs. I am touched that a family would want me to document all of their children's weddings. It is great to form a relationship with a family and to be a part of such imortant aspects of their children's lives.



When I walked in and saw Theresa's wedding gown I realized that Barbel and I had photographed two other weddings at which the bride wore the same dress. I think all three of the brides look fantastic. The dress is made out of an exquisite lace and wrapped with a luxurious sash.

Theresa and Keith had several things planned for the wedding day that I thought were very thoughtful and smart. Keith walked down the aisle holding hands with his mother and father. In hindsight it is such an obvious thing to do. Why should the bride be the only one escorted down the aisle with her parents? The more I think of the tradition of the bride being escorted by only her father the more I question it. I got married 17 years ago and had both of my parents walk me down the aisle because I wanted to honor both of them.

Theresa and Keith planned to sit with their parents and granmothers instead of their friends because they knew that they probably wouldn't see much of them otherwise. They also chose to cut the cake while the band was having their first break. This ensured that everyone stayed at the reception longer and had something fun to do during the first break.

I am constantly moved by the kindness that my clients show to me. Theresa and Keith thanked me for making the effort to get back to Bozeman to photograph their wedding. I feel very grateful that they chose me to photograph their beautiful wedding.
Melanie
