Brittany & Chas





It was a warm, but BEAUTIFUL day when Brittany & Chas got married last weekend. And I could not have asked for two more WONDERFUL people to work with! Chas is a true charmer and the definition of a gentleman. Brittany is a southern lady through and through...sophisticated, elegant, full of life, and always the center of attention. (Is that about right, Jamie?) After having photographed their Engagement Session, Brittany's Bridal Session, and the Wedding, I practically feel like family! It was so much fun getting to know these two and being welcomed with open arms by everyone.

When I arrived at Zion Lutheran Church in Lexington, I was immediately struck by the plethora of fresh flowers. The entire church was dressed to the nine's with floral fragrance and color. I LOVED it. It was definitely representative of Chas & Brittany's class and attention to detail. This theme of quality and elegance carried throughout the day, as evidenced by the vintage Rolls Royce they selected to escort them to the reception, the decorations at the County Club of Lexington, and the abundance of fresh flower pedals the guests showered them with as they made their grand escape into the night.

Brittany & Chas, you guys DEFINITELY know how to throw a first class party! And I know that as you grow together and as you journey through life as a team, you will ALWAYS pick the high road and choose the classy path to travel on!!!

Hey Chris!
What an outstanding job you did at the wedding! We were so pleased. You have been a dream to work with and Jamie will have her turn next year. We can't imagine trusting anyone else with her wedding. We have given your name to a ton of people so expect the phone to ring off the hook. HA! Just wondering when you think the pictures might be on the web site. I am certainly not rushing you but people were asking so I just thought I would check. I know without a doubt that they are going to be beautiful! Thanks a ton! Ronnie

PS: Many of the people at the wedding commented that they thought you were great and so so nice!!

We have already discovered the pics. They are absolutely beautiful. I am in the process of getting the word to everyone! I cannot believe how well you captured every detail. I have always heard that one of the signs of a good photographer is that he takes pictures and you don't even realize he took them or that he was even there. I was thrilled at some of the shots you were able to capture. I just discovered your blog this morning as well. What beautiful words you wrote. It was just lovely. It will mean a lot to Brittany and Chas. (It sure means a lot to me!) I can't wait for them to get home and see all of this! Anyway, thanks so much Chris and Cami. I sure am glad we are getting the CD because I didn't see a bad picture in the bunch!

Thaks, Cindy! I believe this was shot with the Nikkor 12-24mm DX lens. I love it and use it a TON! I also slowed the camera shutter speed way down to create a little motion-blur in the flower pedals and background lights. This helps capture the excitement and sponteneity of the moment!
