Updates, Good Books & a Wedding... | Cache Valley Photographer

Okay, so I figured before life picks up, or I start reading another really good book, I'd better blog this wedding from December. Tee Hee!  BUT, before I do, there's a few things we need to discuss.

1) This post is going to have A LOT of pictures. & I mean A LOT.

2) For those of you who follow me on instagram, or are friends with me and Facebook, I'm sorry for repeating this story about last week's trip to the ER for Emma's poor eye. BUT those of you who don't, this will be a new quick little mention of it.  :)   When I saw her last Tuesday morning, her eye was nearly swollen shut. I told her, 'Oh, Emma, your poor eye'! and she replied pointing to her left eye, 'it's okay mommy, this one still works'..She's such a good sport. I could really learn something from her. Hmph...Well, her swelling is almost gone and her coloring is almost normal! Wahoo!  She ripped her scab off last night after she 'went to bed'...little stinker!

She's back to dressing herself and being oh so happy! I love that girl more than ANYTHING.  

I don't normally include personal pictures on my photography blog, BUT if you keep reading you'll find out why I'm in a time 'crunch'.

3) Good Books. Oh how I LOVE to read. About this time last year, I did a Rock it or Roll It post on a recent favorite book and I didn't get much time to read again until just the last few weeks. Oh me, Oh my! Need a good book? Touch of Power   AND   The STUDY Series, are absolutely amazing. Touch of Power IS my new favorite book, and it will be hard for any other to top it! Maria Snyder has easily become one of my favorite authors, and I just purchased another one of her series....that is why I do not have time for 2 blog posts..Emma only naps for a limited amount of precious time!!!  ;)

Now, onto the wedding. December 22nd. Also, my anniversary. Also, the best day of the year. AND it's only 3 days away from Christmas. Score right?!  Mandi Marshall was so awesome to come help me with second shooter. She's just starting to venture into the photography business world! So exciting. I LOVE photog friends!!

Gorgeous! Gorgeous flowers!!!

LOVE the back of her dress!!

The bride and her dad broke out into a choreographed routine during their daddy daughter dance. It was pretty fantastic if I do say so myself!!!

The lucky ones who caught the garter and bouquet!

Hands down, one of the most fun weddings I have ever attended. If only I could go back and do mine over, I'd probably steal a few ideas from these guys...they know how to party!  Thanks again to Mandi Marshall for all your great work and help! I really do appreciate it!!
