Lauren and Eric are a great couple with great families and I was looking forward to their wedding reception at the always awesome Orange County Regional History Center. But, before we could start the party at the History Center, we had the ceremony at a small church just south of downtown. The church is a Baptist church now, but Lauren and her family use to attend church there for years before it converted. So, when Lauren and Eric got engaged they asked the pastor if they could take over the church for the day to have their wedding. The pastor and his church were happy to obliged. It’s the small stories like this that make me love being a wedding photographer. Anyway, here are some of my favorites from the day…
Eric wears his emotions on his sleeves… and he loves his mom!
This is so classic. The “guys” with the garter toss…
This is my favorite “departing” shot, ever!

Photography and Art
Seth Godwin had a post on his blog today that really resonated with me. I thought I would share. Seth is a genius in marketing and you should definitely check out his blog for daily inspiration.
“Art is what we call…
the thing an artist does.
It’s not the medium or the oil or the price or whether it hangs on a wall or you eat it. What matters, what makes it art, is that the person who made it overcame the resistance, ignored the voice of doubt and made something worth making. Something risky. Something human.
Art is not in the eye of the beholder. It’s in the soul of the artist.”

Intimate Winter Park Ceremony
I have known Troy for about 6 years and was very excited when he told me was engaged. I was even more excited when he asked if I could shoot the ceremony at his house. Close friends and family, cold beer and great food was what this intimate affair was about and I was glad that I got to shoot it for them. I got to put down the camera and relax after the ceremony and just be a guest. So thank you Troy for inviting me and letting be your photographer. Enjoy a few of my favorites…
