e: stephanie + matt

tyler July 29th, 2008

we love clients that say our pictures give them the warm fuzzies.

we love stephanie and matt.

matching smiles.

“stairing” into each others eyes.

we’re an equally opportunity photographer. if we take a picture with the girl out of focus…

we’ll take one with the guy out of focus.*

ready. set. kiss.

we’ll see you for the b•session!

* this was purely a joke equating artistic expression with the women’s rights movement.

michelle + andrew

tyler July 22nd, 2008

this wedding post is brought to you by starbucks.

the groom.

the bride.

the jewelry.

someone made a funny.

but they regained their composure.

candles all around the sanctuary.

the bride and groom are always beaming on the way out.

stalker?

once they’re married i don’t think that’s what you call him anymore.

smooooooooooooch.

the best man.  always good to have around for heavy lifting.  (or birdseed cleanup.)

i count 31 anxious girls.  there may be more hiding.

our bride wandering around her reception hall.

the tasty tiemeier tower

andrew repeats a solo that was featured during the best man’s toast in an embarrassing video.

the most hoppin’ dance floor ever.

if you couldn’t tell, michelle and andrew are a lot of fun.

the final chapter: melissa + tyler (part 2)

tyler July 14th, 2008

we’ve had a few posts of melissa and tyler here on the ex•posé. this is the last of the bunch – pictures telling the story of their day.

i hit the ball straight into the wall in the cave while tyler celebrated my demise, greg pondered where to hit is ball, and chris sneezed in a strange reaction to my putt.

the girls had more important things to do.

pre-tied, but no clip-on.

mirror mirror on the wall.

no more fun and games. it’s business time.

well, maybe a little fun.

happy in…

happy out.

walking through the mansion.

toasts and songs.

to the conservatory.

1, 2, 3, 4 layers.

no smashing.

tyler, in the reflection, smiling at his bride in the car.

once again, congratulations to great friends and a great couple.

irish traditions: karen + dustin

tyler July 1st, 2008

karen and dustin made it to their big day.

the sun shown brightly.

“you may now kiss your bride.” dustin did.

i think everyone was still laughing from the kiss as they exit.

dustin’s four sisters make for a fun and full bridal party.

i think our ring bearer may have gone crazy from cooties after being so close to the kiss.

karen bakes wedding cakes. she decided to create a 3 layered masterpiece for her own wedding. on the middle layer (picture at the top), you can see the claddagh - an irish symbol with two hands, a heart, and a crown symbolizing friendship, love, and loyalty.

the top was adorned with two green-wearing bears. rumor has it that karen owns over 80 teddy bears.

a rose petal send-off to an after party at dustin’s house.

there was a lot of dancing there, but no one could match the energy of dustin’s grandfather. no lady could rest when he was on the floor.

karen and dustin slipped into some more comfortable clothes and made themselves… comfortable.

a perfect end to a perfect day.
