Tawny and my escape from the mosquitoes!

Monday, October 19, 2009 Posted in Wedding Photography

Tawny’s bridals were interesting to say the least.
Circumstances:
Wedding is in a little more than 2 weeks
Wedding dress 12 sizes to big!!! (LITERALLY) We won’t bad mouth her dress company on the blog;)
Lots of mud….
And um… mosquitoes resembling the horror movie “Birds” (You can actually see them in the sunset photos!)

Despite all the bad we still had a rockin session! Tawny is nothing less that amazing!! And a special thanks to her Mom and Aunt for all the help and enduring the many many mosquito bites they got.

Here are some of my favorites!!

And here is what we went through to get the shots!!
And those were just the ones in front of the lens!!:P

Phillip Allen - Vavavoom! As they say in France, or rather in a British television advert for a French car. Anyway :~) Vavavoom indeed! Fantastic photos of a beautiful bride Shyann, and good on you for braving the savagery of mother nature; you’re a true pro and a fantastic photographer. Semper fi!
