Wedding

I had the pleasure of shooting some fun photos at B and A's wedding on Saturday! Of course, I was not the main photographer, but it was fun to pretend! If you read my About Me, you know that I want to be a Wedding Photographer. It is SO much fun! Mom was the caterer at the wedding, so that's why I got to tag along :)

I split up my pictures into different sections. I edited most of them with borders and such. Tell me how you like it! Well, here you go! Enjoy!

  Before the Wedding

Bridesmaids and flower girls.

The little girls whispering secrets before the wedding :)

I snagged this one while the REAL photographers were doing their stuff :)

The Ceremony

The Bride and Groom.

Aww!!!

Leaving the church to go to their off-site photoshoot.

So now here are some random shots I took:

The guest book.

On every table in the reception room they had a glass bowl with a flower in it. It was SO pretty!

Parts of the BEAUTIFUL creation my mom made:

Joelle was great {If not a bit silly}! She was only a little upset towards the end when she wanted to go home!

The candles were beautiful, but it was so DARK in the reception hall that you couldn't see what you were eating!

After the wedding {And while the Bride and Groom were at the photoshoot}, I got mom's rings and used them as props :) I couldn't exactly go over and ask the Bride and Groom for their rings, could I? Hey, I had to improvise. I really like how these turned out!

Haha, I had my "True Love WAITS" ring, but that didn't really apply to the wedding, so I turned it so that it just said "True Love"! Haha! I really liked that one.

I hope you all liked my pictures! I had SO much fun taking them! I hope that I can do another photoshoot like that again soon!

And by the way, the 'Rebecca Photoshoot' is coming soon! Stay tuned!

Blue Vs. Red

 

Beginning of the first game.

 

Didn't plan this one :) But this is Coach Mary.

 

WOO-HOO!!! (I always lose my voice at these volleyball games :)

 

 Go Leah!

 

A girl on the Red Team. Even though we probably got smashed by that kill, I had to put it in :)

 

Joelle LOVES sitting with Aunt Linda and Uncle Larry :) Too cute :)

I took this picture at the game, and I though I would be able to post this on 9/11, but I didn't get to it. Do you know how long it takes to get my photos ready for {the blog}? I have to resize it, touch it up, give it the watermark, and fix any blemishes! It takes a good 4 days to get them ready!

 

Didn't know WHY that one turned out like it did, but I liked it, so who cares?

 

 

 

Boy, doesn't that look like fun? :)

 

A Tootsie Pop! Yum!

 

 

 

I tried to get more face shots, but it's hard when people ARE MOVING!!! "Stop moving so I can take your picture!!!"

 

 

The Tootsie Pop is BACK!!!

 

Blue beat them in 3 games!!! Yay! Go FLAMES!!!

46 Minutes From Home

Thanks to Dad for the wonderfully catchy title :) 

But yes, Highland is '46 minutes from home', so it only made sense to title it that. Actually, it made sense to ME to have 'Church Campout, 2009' or 'Camping at Highland', but I like Dad's title too :)

So all these pictures will be in no particular order (I'd have no idea where to start!), just enjoy!

Katherine found this little guy in the river. There are so many animals there, once, we even found a snake! OK, enough scary stories... :)

Jenny mostly took care of Tobin. Lucky duck :)

Jenny and I took Tobin, Josiah and David up to the sand volleyball court and started playing some real 'volleyball' :)

~

Tobin was much to happy just playing in the sand :) 

Josiah always wanted me to take a picture of him/something, and I was more than happy to say yes! It is not really normal for someone around here to jump up and down and say "PLEASE take a picture of me!!!". I think I've taken too many pictures of them and overstayed my welcome :)

Yikes! Probably shouldn't put that one on here... But I love it! Psst! If I don't blog within the next week, CALL THE POLICE!!! :) Silly silly silly.

We had a baptism service on Sunday. 

Our youth pastor Joe.

The nine kids waiting anxiously awaiting to be led down the river bank to the freezing cold water... :)

The nine kids and their FAMILIES waiting at the bank.

Katherine.

Jessica (I'm so sorry Jessica, I WASN'T in a good place to take pictures!).

Jeremy.

Jacob.

Matthew.

Luke.

Evan.

Perry.

Bryce.

Congratulations! Welcome to the church family! 

Haha, lovebirds :)

Eww, look at that mucky brown water... :P It was cold too :) It was cold this year, it was cold last year, and it was cold 3 years ago when I was baptised!

POOL!!! Now remember folks, the water is COLD! 66 degrees to be exact...

What a face!

David is sitting on the edge shivering...

And Joelle is off swimming like a polar bear (Polar Bear? Ice cold water? Swimming? Oh never mind...)!

Aha! But now he is ready to go swimming!

Nope. Never mind.

Another little swimmer! What a cutie pie!

Out of the water, in the water, out of the water... WHICH ONE???

I loved the water drops by her nose :)

Love it :)

You don't know how many people came over to me and said, "Hey, I love your blog!", or "Is that going on your blog?" and I love this one, "Does THAT camera even TAKE pictures???" :) Haha, it's sweet to know that other people read my blog though. And it wasn't just kids! It was actually more adults! I was like "WOW! I really need to watch what I write!" :) And yes, even though my camera does flip out and it looks like a video camera... I love it and I wouldn't trade it for anything! I would rather have a skimpy looking camera and take good pictures than to have NO camera and take NO pictures. Yup. That's my philosophy.

Good night!
