Jessica and Randy

 

I had no idea who Jessica or Randy were before this wedding day. During a wedding last year, the Groom’s mother told me I had to photograph her son’s big day. All I knew was that communication with them would be difficult because they traveled all over the world. After seeing the places they’d been, they weren’t lying. These two have been to more countries than I could ever dream of seeing in my lifetime. With that, here are the wedding photos that I hope they cherish for their lifetime.

Immediately spotted the Brownie camera used as a prop. There was also an old Polaroid, and a 120 folding camera. The traveling theme was executed so well.

Hair and makeup were done off site prior to my arrival, but that doesn’t mean we can’t fake it.

Cinderella wishes she had a gown this elegant.

Jessica said she wanted to do a stocking pull getting ready photo. Little did she know that she would open the door to her bridesmaids doing the same saucy leggy photo on their own.

And here is the sauce.

Now look deeply into his eyes.

Love this shot.

And I also love this one! The veil was the cherry on top of the whole bride. Despite later entangling itself in her hair (almost requiring scissor surgery), it was my favorite accent.

“Don’t take a picture, I wasn’t even crying!”

The sweetest private vows. Lighting this is tricky with one side being super bright, and the other super dark.

Unfortunately, the Best man, Tr y, was caught in the Florida hurricane, and could not make it.

The weather was calling for rain all week, but we were lucky enough to get warm weather and sunshine.

The ring bearer when he realized the rings he was in possession of were phonies.

Shenanigans!

All work, and no play, makes Randy a dull boy.

All the warms colors in this photo <3

The queen of wasps herself. No joke, I must have flicked five off of her.

Swooning the entire house with their choreography.

Shadow kisses.

Having a map on your wedding cake is a flex.

A little beep boop on the nose.

Living the best life.

Living the best life part two.

It’s been a few weddings since I’ve done one of these. My different take on a silhouette shot.

On guard!

The glow stick battles raged on.

My favorite dancers of the night come in at a tie between this couple and this next couple.

Loud noise provided by the man himself, DJ VO. Keeping the dance floor thriving all night long!

Totally a spontaneous photo. I was looking into this mirror and saw Jessica and Randy in the reflection. I was thinking “Man, this would be so good if they kissed.” So there you have it, I’m a wizard.

My favorite kind of hair is the kind that is whipped around.

And there you have it…sike, the party goes on!

For real real now! These two were so great. A full dance floor filled with the biggest smiles is all I want in a reception. Not many parties can last till 11, and this one did just that.
