Beautiful weddings

I love taking pictures at weddings. Being the main photographer gives me a challenge as does any event, plus I have my role among all those people who are there to have a good time. It gets hectic sometimes and it's hard work, but it's a kind of stress I thrive on.

Me thriving on stress

Annett and Benny had a beautiful wedding day. After months of rain, the heavens graced them with a perfect day. We had met to discuss what kind of pictures they wanted and we went to Backnang to check out the church and locations for their pictures after the ceremony. The town is cute, but parking is ridiculous, especially on a Saturday morning (market) in the middle of June (Stadtfest).

One of the locations we had chosen to shoot some pictures had been covered by 250 chairs and a stage for the festival, but that didn't seem to bother the blissful couple much - see their smiles?

From the church we all drove in a long procession of cars to the reception. Benny loved being allowed to lead the parade in a friend's antique Jaguar!

At the reception there was a lot of great food, lively conversation with nice people and hours of dancing! Several guests were interested in photography, so I let them use my cameras to take some pictures from their perspective of people they knew well. What a fun way to spend a Saturday!
