Update 10/10/06: Album design coming in the next couple days, so stay tuned!

Thanks so much, guys, for choosing me to photograph your wedding!

You are both amazing people and anyone would be fortunate to know you as a friend! Speaking of your friends, the groomsmen were great fun and the gals were wonderful, too. The barn dance was a very original idea… all day Dan and I were able to say “never saw THAT at a wedding!” LOL

Anyway, congratulations – it sounds like ‘your day’ was a long time coming… it looks like it was worth the wait.

Click on the favorites below to view them at a larger size, album design coming soon.

Update 10/13/06: Wedding images are now online. Enjoy!

Update 10/10/06: Wedding images will be up tomorrow, so check back!

Ok, so at this point I’m practically the Bandy/Wright/Topolski families’ official photographer… which is fine by me! This was like my fifth or sixth shoot with Christina, and she is just lovely. Easy to work with and usually up for anything… like teeing off from her husband’s face, but we’ll get to that later! LOL

First Baptist was the church, Coyote Crossing was the reception venue, and Dan Jordy was the entertainment!

Thanks to everybody for a great time, here are some favorites for now:

Christina’s eager to see her man:

Nice colors, nice lighting:

Ready to rock!

The goyles (as Popeye would say):

I think they’re happy:

Yep.

The fellas:

Some more nice lighting… oh yeah, check out the bride and groom, too…

One at Christina’s request:

One word: Trust!

Moms get emotional:

Josh takes over from Dan as life of the party:

Stay tuned!

Update 11/9/06: Wedding images up here.

Update 10/26/06: Albums been up for awhile, I forgot to post the link… oops! The preliminary album is available for viewing here. Give the software a sec to get going. Enjoy!

Update 9/30/06: After playing catch-up on previous projects I now have the time to begin designing an album for Laurie and Wayne. Thanks so much to everyone for their patience! I hope I can make it worth the wait.

Laurie and Wayne were married at Valle Vista Country Club in Greenwood, Indiana amidst perfect weather and a very happy gathering of friends and family.

Laurie looked great in her posed shots, but I’ve got several candids of her that I’m very happy with. I’m a little behind at this stage, so I’ll get right to some of my favorites:

Ok, so I came up with a rather bold marketing concept, and I can’t believe Tom went for it… in fact, he loves it. Basically, we love to have fun when we work, and we always try and take a fresh approach to what we do, and the phrase “Not 1985″ has been coming up in discussion.

Anyway, below is the first ad to run with the new concept, it’s only going to get more outrageous from there! Let me know what you think, please. Is it funny? Does it make sense? Does it make you curious about us? Hope you like it!

By the way, thanks to our friend Chris for modeling for us!

Update 11/1/06: After fire, brimstone, locusts and plague (just kidding,LOL), images are finally up here!

Update 10/10/06: The rest of the wedding images will be up soon, I’m shooting for early next week, so check back!

Update 9/29/06: The preliminary album is available for viewing here. Give the software a sec to get going. Enjoy!

Update 9/12/06: I’m shooting for tomorrow night for the album design…

Update 9/8/06: Well, normally I’d like to have an album design up by this time of the week, but unfortunately it looks like it’s going to be the beginning of next week. I promise to make it worth the wait!

So I ‘ve had this wedding coming up… the one I keep telling people is “at a castle”. That always gets the same response: a wide eyed expression of awe with the mouth slightly agape! LOL…

Truth be told, the wedding was at a castle, but the best part about it was Lindsey, Joe and their friends and family. I could easily go on about the venue, Myers Castle in Dyer, Indiana (it was breathtaking) but I’d rather tell you about Lindsey and Joe. Linsey is beautiful, but what I notice more is her commitment to Joe, her friends and those around her. She made me feel so ‘at home’. Her bridesmaids were just great (that includes Becca) and I really wish I’d had the opportunity to spend more time with the groomsmen (they arrived just before the ceremony) because they were just a blast… and not just on the dance floor!

Joe took time out from the mad fun at his reception to seek me out and say goodnight, which means alot to me, and I think it says alot about Joe as a person. Here’s wishing the best to Lindsey and Joe, and I’m really fortunate to be the one documenting their wedding and providing their memories of the day. Congratulations!

Here are some quick favorites until I can get an album design up… click on the images to view them at a larger size.

The ceremony site:

You know it’s gonna be fun when it’s wine in a box!

These girls know how to celebrate!

Awww…

Lindsey (I asked her for ‘serious’, so it’s not her fault if she looks that way):

The moment approaches:

One of my favorites of Lindsey:

Those wacky groomsmen:

We all know how happy they are:

But the girls offered a little encouragement anyway! LOL

Check back soon!
