courtney + steven preview wedding pics

I will always remember Steve and Courtney’s wedding as the wedding with the gigantic bridal party.  Counting the bride and groom, this bridal party hit a record 30 people.   It was a blast photographing this wedding, but also the most challenging I have ever worked.   Fitting 30 people in a camera frame, and keeping them all in one spot long enough to fire off a couple frames, all the while keeping my fingers crossed that nobody makes a weird face or blinks is most def a tricky situation.  Props to Courtney, she put together an excellent time line and everything managed to go smoothly and on time.

My day with them started normally with makeup and mimosa’s with the bride and bridesmaids:

After spending an hour with the bridesmaids, I drove down the street to Tim’s house where the guys were getting ready.   Tim has the ultimate party ready basement.  I decided I want a basement just like Tim’s.   Guys get ready for weddings….. ummm…….a little differently then girls… I arrived just in time to catch a quick game of beer pong:

There’s only so many beer pong photos one can capture, so I went back to Courtney’s just in time to photograph her getting into her dress and then a quick toast to the bride before heading off to the church.

I arrived at the church to find that the guys had all gotten dressed and cleaned up quite nicely :)

After the ceremony, pictures in the church for about 30 minutes, then off to Fern Hill where we spent a little time photographing the bridal party on the golf course.
