This is the last category of Top 10 images and it’s a good one.  Regardless of wedding venue, flowers, and all the planning that goes into a wedding day it’s ultimately about the two people getting married.  There is nothing I enjoy more than giving a couple a great photo of them on their wedding day.  Most of these came about because of them choosing to have a First Look.  It’s what allows us time to really have fun and capture some creative photos.

Since this is the last category I’m going to leave the voting open all weekend so get to work people.  check back Monday morning when the winners in each category are announced.  Each category winner will receive a 16×20 print of their winning image. So pick an image, vote, then get on your Twitter and your Facebook and make your friends come vote.

Here are the images.

I have been looking forward to this wedding for a long time.  I knew Kristi & Kiley would be great but I was also super excited about getting to shoot at Stone Oak Ranch for the first time.  All 3 did not disappoint!  Kristi & Kiley were totally into each other the whole time and Stone Oak Ranch jumped into one of my Top 5 favorite places to shoot!  This place is fantastic.  It’s straight out of a movie.  I was describing it to another photographer friend of mine yesterday and the best explanation I had was… “If Julia Roberts were getting married in a movie somewhere out in the country the it would look exactly like Stone Oak Ranch.”  Not a bad place to get married right? :)  OK, on to the images.

One of the great things about Stone Oak is that they are able to provide you with flowers for your day.  They are done by A Touch of Nature.  These came out great.

Thank You Kristi & Kiley for trusting me with your day.  I loved sharing it with you.

Sarah & Chris had a fantastic afternoon wedding in Athens, TX.  When I first met with them they were unsure about doing a First Look, I’m so glad they changed their mind.  We were able to get so many great shots of just the two of them flirting and enjoying their wedding day.

How great is this first shot?

I ADORE couples who are totally lost in themselves during their first dance.  Justin of P3 Pro Sound did a great job keeping folks on the dance floor.

… speaking of the dance floor, this kid OWNED it.  He was all over the place.

If you look in the background you can see Jeff Heimer of JMH Pro.  Chris surprised Sarah by having him come film their wedding.  She was giddy when she found out.  (It almost beat out their First Look on the emotion scale.)

Hey, check it out.  It’s Erin & Chris of Erin & Chris fame. :)

Hope you guys are having a blast in Hawaii.
