Jenalea and Marcus

In an effort to freshen up the blog and get some different material up, there will be a brand-spankin’ new post every day for the next six days. I’ve been super bad about updating the site lately, but plan to catch up and talk about all of my awesome couples!

First off, I want to say a very big THANK YOU to everyone lately. I’ve been battling some health issues that came out of nowhere and spent a good chunk of time in the hospital in June (first time ever and hopefully my last). The road to recovery has been longer and harder than I thought and I’ve appreciated the understanding and patience that has accompanied the get well messages. I’ve never had an experience like this before and it has been a struggle in so many ways. Edits and responses have been slower than normal over the last month, but I’m hoping that the worst is behind me and things will return to normal soon. Again – thanks for your prayers, concern, and patience. I am blessed to have the best clients in the world and will continue to serve you as quickly as I can.

I have posts that cover shoots going back to April, but I wanted to kick things off by showcasing the wonderful Jena and Marc. Unfortunately, their wedding came at a time when I was in the hospital. Even though I tried to tell my doctor that I could drag the IV tree down the aisle with me, it was clear that I wasn’t going to be released anytime soon. I’ve never missed a wedding in my years of shooting, but I always have a backup plan for the unexpected. My ultra-fabulous second shooters, Jeromy and Katie, stepped in and did a great job in capturing Jena and Marc’s special day. I’ve worked with both Jeromy and Katie on tons of weddings and know that they can shoot any event in their sleep. When the wedding was over, I got a full report of the evening and heard what a wonderful night it was. The ceremony was warm, genuine, and full of joy, and the reception was an energy-filled celebration of this couple’s union. Every guest seemed to thoroughly enjoy the festivities and there was plenty of dancing, laughing, speeches, and happy glances to personify the fun and cheer this couple shares.
