Love is like learning to riding a bicycle…

My girlfriend told me the other day I needed to blog. She said that it looks like I haven’t been very busy. So I’m going to ‘attempt’ to put up 7 blog entries over the next 14 days. I’ve actually been the busiest I’ve ever been with wedding photography. I have also been working on several projects which should come to light over the next few months. The only hint I can give is that my veins bleed photography, photography and more photography.

So let’s jump to a wedding. This was actually Rob and Tania’s wedding. I get asked quite a bit about weddings and are any of them any different. There’s never a time when when a wedding feels like a repeat. That is mostly because the couples are so different.

This wedding was a little different though. It was at a mountain home which was absolutely beautiful.

About everything was handmade, including the house. Here’s Tania making Margaritas for the wedding. She actually let me sample and i can remember them being very potent, I recommended she decrease the alcohol so nobody would pass out before it was over.

Here’s Aunt Toni preparing some of the food. They were incredibly nice people! Tania invited me back around Thanksgiving and I plan on hitting up the rehearsal site for some still motion star photography. Very exciting! I actually met a few astronomy buffs that had a bunch of super cool telescopes but it turned out to be a little cloudy.

A few of my favorite shots before the wedding. We actually had to dodge about 3 different rain clouds that day.

Rob and Tania had first dibs though.

These guys were over the top with fireworks excitement. South Carolina’s fireworks laws are a lot more open than other states. So, I finally figured out why there are so many fireworks stores in South Carolina.

Not the greatest fireworks shot but it was free handed!

Alek & Alena

These guys were great!  We were actually rained out the first day we tried to shoot.  I think it worked out well since the cloud coverage was so nice on the next attempt.  Alek and Alena are both from the Ukraine.   I look forward to researching the culture before we shoot their wedding!

Should be releasing a new package sheet soon for 2010 that will have two huge changes.  Can you say rockstar?

The All Stars…

I’m shooting a wedding in the mountains of North Carolina this weekend.  It’s definitely the first time I met the bride only two days before the wedding(in person).  Things went really well, as always. I seem to find the coolest clients on the planet.  Or they find me rather!

The story of these guys is great. They actually dated in high school and rediscovered each other 10 years later.

So I’m sitting in Tanya’s living room and she pulls out these really cool fully customized Chuck Taylors with her wedding date on them.  They were super cool and definitely different.  Apparently they are fully customizable so I’m waiting on the black and red ‘Ash Little Photography’ editions with the converse logo removed and big A on the side!

I scoped out the downtown area and found 9 locations for us to shoot the post ceremony shots.  So those are going to be blast!  I have 3 shoots lined up for Sunday Monday and Tuesday so check back!

This converse shot was taken at 3200 ISO.  Unbelievable!
