weddings

Yesterday was C+L's wedding... it was really beautiful. I will have to show you some photos. After the ceremony I hugged them both and was overtaken with emotion because they are so in love and buzzing with excitement. I go to many weddings, since it's my job, and you can tell who's going to make it through thick and thin... who's truly, truly in love. They forget that the camera is even there. C+L didn't even see me. :) 

These photos above aren't from their wedding. They are photos by duston todd. He has some amazing photos that you should check out. I also love the shoes in the middle photos.

Speaking of great photographers, I just found these photos by josh goleman:

(and look at how pretty this bride is).

I want to get one of these half frame cameras. The Olympus Pen F is a 18X24mm frame film camera made in the sixties, which seems to go for around $400-$800. Too much for me. I want a rangefinder and some new lenses which will probably come first. It's a pricey hobby. 

Two other lil' wedding thoughts: if you're looking for a place to have your ceremony/reception in Detroit... two great places are: 

1. The Scarab club -The outside courtyard is old looking with the brick building and cobblestone walkway, arched doorways and vines. You feel like you're in a foreign country! and the inside has wood floors and art on the walls since it's a gallery. good choice laura. 

2. The Gem Theatre - It's filled with beautiful chandeliers, ornate details and many perfect spots for photos. Their couches and chairs are vintage and amazing, and the outside patio is quaint and private with umbrella tables. But I do think you made the right choice, L. 

photos coming soon.
