Second line

This was an especially fun wedding. The couple was from New Orleans and they did not need any other excuse to make their wedding into a big parade, "Second line" style. I spent the entire evening chasing after the bride and groom for shots like these as they tirelessly danced and twirled around the room all night long, with the entire crowd following them.

The one that got away

Those who know my photography style may be familiar with how I have been known to get the occasional bride a little mud-spattered, the groom a little hay-dusted. It can be a lot of fun to take some photographs at an unusual spot that is meaningful to your relationship, or play in the field while you have on a stunning outfit that you will wear only once in your life. Just remind me to save those shots for after the ceremony because we don't want everyone to see mud on the dress at the church!
