Just got a in a new album and thought I’d try and share it with you. You may recognize Kim and Josh from thier wedding at the Villa di Felicita back in June. They were a great couple to work with and I thought I’d give Kim one final blaze of bridal blogging glory and feature her album on the site!
The pages are super thick and amazingly sturdy!
They also all lay flat so there is no big ugly crease keeping you from seeing your images! Even though I’m posting some photos of the album, these really have to be held to be appreciated. The leather is soft and fluffy, sometimes my kids take naps on them before I ship them out to brides.
Kim and Josh are HUGE HUGE HUGE Aggies so I thought I would also take some extra special photos for them. :)
This may be the closest this album ever comes to a National Championship.
Here is the full album if any of you want to take a look at it.
In all seriousness, you brides out there should really consider these albums when booking your packages. It’s so neat to have something tangible that you can hold, put on a coffee table or pass on to your kids later on down the road. (If you have already booked and want to add an album to your package, shoot me an E-mail and I’ll get you a little deal worked up.)
Many of you will recognize Kim and Josh from my little promo video that Vaness McKellar did for me. If you have not seen it before, grab some popcorn and take a minute to watch it. You’ll see just how much fun the two of them are.
(Mini Rant 1: Vanessa was there filming the wedding since her and her husband are so great to work with and I believe EVERY couple should have their wedding filmed we are offering a little deal for future brides. Stay tuned to the blog for details coming soon.)
Anyway, I had such a great time at Kim & Josh’s wedding. I was there for a little over 10 hours and loved being able to capture the day form beginning to end. Rather than me blab on and on, Let’s get to the images.
The Villa was as always… a perfect place to have a wedding.
In true Aggie fashion, they brought this and basically tailgated before the wedding. It was pretty awesome.
Kim was a perfect bride in the sense that she let others help her and pamper her, but still took time to make sure everyone else was having a good day.
So I brought this chair in from outside for the flower girl to sit on and someone shouted “Frog!” We had yet to see Josh, so could this be a Magical Disney Moment?
Those of you who know Josh and his fondness for the color burnt orange will appreciate this photo. ;)
About 2 weeks ago Kim called me and said. “OK, Josh and I have decided to see each other before the ceremony. I thought I’d tell you so you could be excited.” :) I was giddy.
(Mini Rant 2: Unless you go a wedding weekend after weekend there really is no way of describing how hectic and “un-romantic” SOME of them can be. There are literally hundreds of people around, all of them are wanting to talk to both the bride and groom, there is a timeline that we have to stay on or guests start to bolt for the doors, and every now and then people are running late from the get go. Every time couple choose to see each other before hand I love it. Not because it makes my job easier, or because I’m ready to get the pictures over with, but because I know that you will have some time alone. Time to reflect on the day, time to enjoy each other’s company, and time to whisper nice things in each other’s ears. If it really is a day about just the two of you, then having some moments like these guarantees that it turns out that way. Oh by the way, we’ll also get TONS of super great shots of the two of you.)
Kim had been “fine” all day, but the second she stepped into that chapel, she started tearing up.
One of my favorites form the day.
Kim’s family is not normal. Josh is.
Kim not being a big cake fan, decided to have Josh feed her chips and salsa.
Casey Brown, the best DJ in the area, was there making sure everyone had a good time.
We stopped by the Goodman Museum. They had lots of old stuff and basicaly everything looks amazingly cool in a photograph, especially Kim.
Next up was The Cascades where they have a great golf course and super cool wine cellar.
If you remember from their engagement session Kim and Josh are both HUGE Aggie fans so of course she had to get her 12th man on. (This girl throws a wicked spiral. She almost hit my camera a few times.)
The Heisman Pose, with a bit of laughing mixed in.
