It was a challenging day because of the weather and the fact that I (Mark) dropped our favorite lens…the 15mm fisheye…and broke...
Ooooh so sorry you dropped your lense!! I did the same, just as painful as dropping your favorite lense, is waitin 6 weeks to get it back from the repair shop! Look forward to see the slidshow!
Your ability to capture emotions is absolutely wonderful! And your detail shots were simply WOW!
YET AGAIN ANOTHER AWESOME JOB YOU TWO HAVE DONE!! I SIMPLY LOVE WATCHING THESE SLIDE SHOWS, ((KERRI)), BUT I MUST ADMIT, THEY ALWAYS MAKE ME MISS THAT I DIDN’T HAVE THE WHOLE NINE YARDS IN THE LINE OF A WEDDING, LOL. IT’S LIKE I CAN FEEL THEIR EXCITEMENT FROM HERE!!! AWESOME!!!!
LOVE, CHERYL
woooooohooooooooo….finally caught up on everything. Love the slide shows. This has got to be my favorite thing to do with my pasttime, come watch your slideshows. Anyway, hope you all are doing great. Love and miss ya’ll……..Kimi
she has such an expressive and beautiful smile and you did a great job in capturing it ^_^!!! Very enjoyable !!
:goodjob::goodjob::goodjob:I love this slideshow!!!:heartbeat:
I’m sorry about your lens, I hope it can be repaired. I know photography is an expensive business, especially when things break. 
Everyone at this wedding looks like they were having a wonderful time and they all seem so happy. It makes me happy just to look at the photos. You all are so good at capturing those expressive moments that tell so much about what’s going on at the time. :yes:
RYC It’s easy to tell the truth about your work.:shysmile:
oh the slide show is gorgeous, what a happy job shooting weddings all the time!! and I love those earrings she is wearing!!! lol
Great details and story telling. I agree with Kenny you captured A LOT of wonderful emotions! They surely will cry when they see it.
Yup, or you can find it on his website http://www.gormanphotography.com/gorman.html

Oh you guys! I loved that one! The reds in each picture just about jumped off the page. Well, done! I loved the shot of the to do list at the beginning. After coordinating my daughter, my son, my niece and my sisters wedding I could relate to that shot so well!
Bravo!

:goodjob: Truly, a beautiful wedding! :love:How I love the expressions of love and enjoyment throughout the entire event! :heartbeat:I also liked the many creative touches throughout ~ just one ex.- reading cards together. :heartbeat: You guys are da’ bomb with or without that one lens! :giggle: Hope it gets fixed for you. ~ Carolyn :sunny:
Excellent work, especially under such gruelling conditions, i’m so impressed.
Ryc: I’ve just posted instructions on how to select different areas with the Diana Action. Hope it is helpful.
I noticed in the pics, the same wraught iron folding screen with candles that we bought to use in the wedding in November.
The couple must be so happy with the pictures. You did an awesome job capturing the emotions!
Hi Kerri –
I am actually now living in Louisiana as of about 4 days ago. So far so good! I have my own mare now her name is Mrs Malagrasworth ( we call her M & M) and she is going to have a baby in spring… She is so pretty! I have been spending lots of time with her, walking her with the lead rope. I still need to get her brushed and then I am going to try to get some good pictures of her to post.
I will be back in Cali on 9/22 for a few days.. then I am going to NYC w/ the Settlage’s for a week. I will try to connect with you guys then. Until then…. watch for more posts.

:yes:Awesome pictures, guys! What a lovely family…Have a great weekend! In HIS amazing love, Paula:love:
:yes: The daughter definitely takes after her Daddy and the son his Mother. Beautiful pictures! Does the dog have those long, black eyelashes on each side or is it just long black hair? Beautiful. ~Carolyn :love:
I have a hard time picking from proofs because I want all of them So when we’ve had pics made, I ended up buying all the proofs, as well as having a few copies made.
:goodjob:I cry every time I watch one of your slide shows.:cry: I’m going to have to bring tissue when I come to your site in the future !!!!! :heartbeat:
I would have cried too. Your photos draw such emotion. I looked at Nick and Sarai’s photos too. Beautiful!!! just beautiful!!!
Great family photo session. You got everything in there and did a wonderful job. They will have a ton to pick from. I like the song you chose for the slideshow too. They sincerely look like they were have a fun time.
Thanks Kerri and did you see that I did have a slideshow posted up with memories on tv?
Thank you very much for your comment, well that was taken with a regular (3.1 mega pixels home camera) becouse i still don’t have a professional camera yet, yes i added the effects, i hope in a future to be able to study fotography , beocuse i find it so enjoyable. Wether is a picture i have taken or someone else , it odesn’t matter , a good image tottaly grabs my heartt ^_^
God bless .

This family is so photogenic ~ all 5 of them (including the dog)! :yes: Of course, then there are the photographers, that kinda clenches the success of the shoot! :goodjob: I love all of the groupings, and the song truly fits!
You guys did such a wonderful job. They look like a great family. So how much do you usually charge for a shoot like this?
Well we have recovered from the heat of the wedding but we are still dealing with the record heat wave we are experiencing here (Sacramento) … it is predicted to be 113 today! I am really getting tired of this…people have died…I just caught something on the news about a place that is air conditioned that...

:wave:Can’t wait to see the slideshow! :sunny: I’m sorry, I don’t know who Lindsey and Brian are yet. I had no idea it got that hot in California!:eek: Stay cool and take care of yourselves in the heat. Hope the heat wave breaks soon.:coolman:
{v}
Lindsay and Brian are our children. Lindsay is 21 and Brian is 18.
I’m so happy to meet Mark!:wave: I’ve read about your healing and as always, am in awe of God’s love for us!:heartbeat::heartbeat::heartbeat:
Your photos are beautiful!!!:goodjob: I love to see families working together!:laugh: What a Blessing it must be to have your children sharing your talents and inspiration.:love:
Beautiful shot, what a great couple, looking forward to seeing the slideshow.
The 20D is a great camera alright, I just love it!
And, I’m still waiting for Costco to call back after I dropped off my reference contact info :p
Yeah, I’ve learned that you have to take a few moments on days when you shoot events like that and drink a lot of liquids and at least snack a little. I hope she’s better now.
And yes, it was some trouble, but I managed ok. The 50mm f/1.4 and f/1.8 are fantastic lenses. The 50mm f/1.4 is sharper wide open and more open than the f/1.8 but the f/1.8 is sharper stopped down.
Nice photograph! Look forward to seeing the rest. Glad to hear Kerri is getting better!
I just can’t imagine that heat! I think 98 is unbearable! Looking forward to the slideshow.
I just posted a crazy video. Come check it out when you have time.
Can’t wait, can’t wait!
Keri, you need to take care of yourself. Drink water when your outside!
~Blessings~
Paula
Hi Kerri, thanks for visiting! I’m a veterinary medical student on summer break working as a internal med/critical care tech. I love photography, if medicine were not my chosen path I would definately have pursued photography to it’s full potential. I love you and your husband’s work on this site, you do wonderful wedding work! With regards to the lens…I’m not sure if Canon has an equivalent, I know there are a few Canon macros (135?) that are quite good but not really familiar with the lineup. The 105VR is a detail shot lover’s dream.
kerri, i sure hope your feeling better!!! you better take good care of yourself girl, dont make me come out there!!! hey I heard on our local news about the heat in california!!! wow, I never remember it like that when I was growing up!!! and hey I have to say, that having that groom under the veil is the most romantic thing I have ever seen!!!! love ya girl!!
Nice pic, love your work. You guys take good care of yourselves and drink lots of clean water, slowly though, drinking it too fast can mess you up…..God Bless.
that is some hot weather!
Hope we’re feeling better?????
I love that picture!!!!!!!! Wow!
thanks! that’s my nephew. he just turned 2 and has already been a flirt w/ the ladies for quite a while. =]
Hey Kerri, the same thing has happened on my site. I have just a few to come by now. But I haven’t been able to visit as much as I like but just as you said, it’s a new season and things have changed. I miss you though!!! I know that you are busier now so I love to hear from you whenever you can get by. We don’t forget. So just go with your flow. The pictures are beautiful as usual. I have a thing for weddings now…hahahaha! I wish you could have taken our pictures. The ones that the chapel took were not that great but we do have those, but everything else was soooo beautiful and I had a wonderful wedding and honeymoon. Now I can’t wait to get back to Vegas. I had a cruise scheduled in October but now I am going to cancel it and go to Vegas in September. I can’t wait until November to see my husband!!! hahaha! The heat has been terrible and I have been hearing where people are dying from the heat. It was 120 the Sunday that I was in Vegas, but they know how to deal with the heat. I hear also that the earth is hotter than its been in 400 years…that’s something! So try and stay cool and keep up the awesome work. love you!
Hi Kerri, I Am finally back! :wave:
I love the photo, what a Beautiful couple! Waiting to see more…………
My Son lives in Northridge, He said it has been so hot……It’s like that here in Mass..and so humid! looking forward to Fall, can’t come soon enough for Me…:yes:
I’ve only ever had one wedding day near that. also 117 on new years eve and the cars which were rather expensive did not have a working air conditioner between them.
Look forward to seeing the images.
Who are you calling old!:lol: I’m not moving anywhere so you’re just stuck with me chickie. :yes:
Love ya Keri!
Paula
Wow!!! It’s super hot there and I think it’s bad when it hits 100 here. I love you guys!!!
Love Lisa
Re: your question. Are you meaning as having the same effect but on the entire rectangle image? That is quite possible.
As re the square it only does the centre or either end of the photo was there another section of image you were thinking to crop from.
Appreciate the feedback.
:wave:Nick & Sarai picture show of wedding ~ just beautiful work! :goodjob:What a lovely couple they are, and what a treasure your work will be to them! :yes: I’m looking forward to the wedding pictures/slideshow of Desmond and Katrina, too. :heartbeat: WOW! Hot weather where you are! 
I’ll keep going to both sites, because I love the pictures, the devotional thoughts, & aw shucks, I just love you guys! :love: ~ Carolyn :sunny:
I am so excited that you will be a grandma soon! I am 11 weeks today…everything is going well. I am so glad to hear that all is well with your sweet daughter. David and I don’t want to find out what we’re having…we’re both big into surprises
On another note, I love your site and all of your photography is beautiful! If you were in the ATL area, I would have loved to have used you for our wedding! Congratulations on all your hard work and the results that you have shared with us!
It’s been a busy summer, but still so good to hear from you…

that was such a beautiful wedding! so obvious that this is one special couple!
:goodjob::goodjob::goodjob: Bravo!
I can only image how much work that takes. I made a 5 minute slide show today for my great niece’s 1st birthday. It took me nearly 5 hours to gather all the pictures and then put it all together.
~Blessings~
Paula
:goodjob: If this is an example of working alone, then I can only say, it makes me want to remarry the love of my life so I can have you two take the photos!:yes: The pictures are awesome!!!:spinning: I especially like the ones of the bride alone with the contrast lighting and the ones with her and her parents. All of them were terrific but those stood out in my mind as exceptionally good. The one of the rings and her sleeve were lovely shots too. Did they really spend their honeymoon in that little cabin?:giggle: The Etta James song is one of my very favorites!:fun:
Fantastic Job!!!:heartbeat:
:yes:I am always so amazed at the talent God has given you and your precious family!!!! I loved each frame! And Kerri, I am so humbled by the comments you left me on the post before this last one…How thankful for you…And I am so encouraged by you. Yes, God has used you to encourage me more than you can imagine! I love you dearly and my prayers are with you and yours…Paula:heartbeat:
Great job you guys! Felt like I was there! Awesome!
RYC : 
:lol::lol::lol::lol: hey, there are advantages to being naive sometimes!!!:giggle::giggle::spinning:
THIS IS MY FAVORITE WEDDING BY FAR!!! THE BRIDE WAS STUNNINGLY PHOTOGENIC AND EQUALLY BEAUTIFUL AND I LOVED HER BOUQUET. AWESOME IT WAS. YOU OUTDID YOURSELF, GIRL!!!
LOVE, CHERYL
Great job of story telling! There are some great shots. I really like the garter toss series.
Emma’s Bed & Breakfast!! I have attended two weddings there! Beautiful place.. You guys did a great job capturing the mood and feel of the wedding. The couple looks very much in love and so fascinated by each other..
My computer is so slow…..I”m afraid the slide show would take all day for me! Thanks for stopping by..I’m glad you were encouraged…..yes…..please share anything I ever have with anyone who could use it! That’s what we’re all about….helping each other and holding one another up in the faith!! blessings! Christy
Nice lighting on the garter/bouqet toss! Love the detail shots! The location is one of my favorites, great job capturing the day!
wow that’s hot!! yes….I do have dial up! Have a peaceful weekend in Jesus…and may He keep you cool!
:heartbeat:RYC:Thanks, Kerrie…I eagerly await hearing more on all HE is doing! With much love and many prayers, Paula:heartbeat::wave:
WOW! Those are just amazing pictures. I love the boquet toss pictures especially. Good song choices too. I always chuckle when I hear “Love Shack”. We are shooting a wedding in August that the couple has chosed that as their first dance song – lighten the mood ya know!
yes i do remember sarai! ~ it was a blessing to be able to see those beautiful pictures of them… yeah. i even showed them to matt and he was like, wow! yeah i remember her! ha well thank you for your comment! keep me in your prayers if you could….. talk to you later!
that was absolutely beautiful and yes I like that song too!! thats another one me and jim sing to eachother!!! good romace there!!!
RYP;You must get tired of all the compliments Kerri! I agree with all the compliments and am amazed at the progress you are making in such a short period of time. It really is terrific.You are keeping yourselves on the cutting-edge too, which is great in the digital world. My hat is again off to you and Mark.
ryc; No,you didn’t get dropped from my rounds.
I was away on holidays for two weeks,and upon my return to work was sent on a week long road trip.As I could only get online for a couple of minutes a day,I used it to read any comments on my site,and/or post. Just no time to comment anywhere.
How you could think I would drop you from my rounds I’ll never under….. 
(just a weak moment,I hope)
Sending cool thoughts and might I suggest a couple of truckloads of water.And drink it all! And how about big,mobile umbrellas.
COOOL THOUGHTS I AM SENDING .The water and umbrellas won’t be there in time.
Please be careful,you and Mark check each other every five minutes when in the sun. And drink,drink,drink water.
I know you are aware of these things,Kerri. This is just a friendly reminder.
Scott
Awesome wedding work, I thoroughly enjoyed looking at them. GREAT JOB!!!! : ) Also thanks for posting kind words on my site. – Monty : )
How I wish you were in Houston! My son is getting married in November. You do some of the most gorgeous photography. You have so many beautiful candid shots. I know too many photographers who do just the old standard “line ‘em up on the stage and shoot” kind of pictures. I like the freshness of your imagination.
some amazing photos there! i was married on the same date July 15th! btw, just wanted to say thank you for dropping by and for your warm wishes for my family. i greatly appreciate it!
7/19-Another Edit: We will have it up in the morning we are just going to bed now! It’s 3:30 a.m….we are so close but we need to tweak the music a bit…and we want it to be good so tomorrow it is… So Goodnight!… 7/18-EDIT: well as you can see we don’t have a...

Just a thought: Macarena or Wonderful Tonight or Chicken Dance :love:
oh thats easy, we have already had this discussion, we would pick “amazed” by Lonestar. look it up the lyrics and the song are awesome and romantic, sorry this is short, I cant type on pain killers, lol love ya!!
I walked down the aisle to “All the Heavens” by Third Day. I LOVE that song!
Can’t wait to see the slideshow!
Okay, so maybe it’s not the best “down the aisle” song, but “Collide” by Howie Day… more of an honest love song in my opinion… in Peace and God Bless.
- Joshua
Also “Blue and Yellow” by The Used… again go honest love song
I have lots of songs in mind………
That’s The Love I Found In You, by Jim Brickman……Beautiful by Jim Brickman and 112…….
wait i wasnt done………lol……..At Last……….now I think that would definitely be my song to walk down the isle to…….I would even do a little spin around or something too…….Martina McBride has a good version…….When God Made You by Newsong……….There is a great Piano song I love by Enya called Waterfall. I think it is so beautiful. When You Love Someone by Bryan Adams.
This reminds me………when Flory and I were going to have a wedding ceremony…..the song that we were going to have played was……..Right Here Waiting by Monica. Because you know…..we both waited FOREVER for each other……… anyway………hope you have fun with your slideshows. Loves to ya………Kimi.
Well I don’t know about down the aisle, but I plan on dancing to “The Luckiest” by Ben Folds (Five)! It’s a different song , but beautful and It says just how much you love someone. I f you have never listened to it, you really should. It always makes me cry. Gosh, I can’t wait till Brandon and I get married! Oh and by the way I love the wedding shots so far, Can’t wait to see more!!!
BETSY :coolman:
oh yeah and the curlers that were in Kadence’s hair were the one’s I wore whten I was little. My mom would put them in my hair every now and again and U wiykd have ti wear them over night! They are definitely better than the prickley rollers!! The sun is VERY HARSH in the morning like that. I got a sun burn on my sholders and the lighting sucks,But you do what you can to get a cute shot. She is so funny when it comes time to take pictures, she get’s right up there and says “CHEESE”!!! it’s real funny.
One of my all time favorites: When a man loves a woman and endless love and of course The righteous brothers: everlasting love.
My son in law sang to my daughter with his guitar after she came down the aisle: I can’t help falling in love with you, there was’nt a dry eye of the women in the church, I think even some of the men shed a few tears :heartbeat: 
.
LOL I am Not the person to ask since I eloped! But, I love going to weddings and looking at photos of them!:yes: Definitely something classical.:)
Gorgeous shot, can’t wait to see the rest.:goodjob:
i really like the “processional” by Richard Rogers that is played when Maria enters the Abbey in the Sound of Music.
