Okay, I promise that I will stop posting photos of this adorable wedding after today…but, I couldn’t NOT post these adorable photos taken by Sash Photography. This is the kind of wedding photographer that I would want if I were getting married again. Briena was fantastic on site, came prepared with back-up everything, dressed nice, and took all the traditional shots as well as a ton of images of the guests.
While most couples want to remember their wedding party and how wonderful they look on the day…. I really feel like they want to remember how they felt on the day and they want to see how much their guests enjoyed the day. And, guests love to have keepsakes of the day and all of the good memories. Photographers who take the extra time to take photos of the guests, edit them, and put them up for purchase add to the overal memory of the day.
When I look at these photos I remember how much fun it was to share this day with Alishia and Ryan… but, I also remember dancing with my son during the mother/son dance (after the groom and his mom, of course). I remember thinking that someday I may be dancing with my son as a grown man as he marries the person he chooses to love. I remember how amazing my husband was taking care of our rambunctious one-year-old as I helped the wedding run smoothly.

I love this! I think photographers should capture the guests as well(yet still keeping focus of the bride and groom). I got a little teary eyed when you talked about dancing with your son and thinking about when he grows up and dancing with him at his wedding. My son is almost 15 months and just the thought about him growing up was a little emotional. 🙂
The photographer did an excellent job with the photos!
It was pretty emotional and surreal for me too! It is too crazy to think of him as an adult someday!
These pictures are lovely, Jenni! I wish we had more pictures of guests from our wedding. That’s such a special thing. 🙂
I know… me too! I love that photographers are heading this direction.
Where is that dress from!? I need that – my friends wedding is going to be those exact colors and it would make for a perfect shower dress!
It was an Old Navy find… I love it! I am sure it is no longer in season anymore. They do have a pretty yellow eyelet dress now though!
You must be busy trying to juggle three blogs (probably more by now, eh?) and the little guy. Hope you are finding time to write something fun, even if it is for someone else. But you have fun whatever you do, it seems. onward, jf
I have been quite busy (happily) but, I did cut out one of my blogs. So, now I am mainly blogging here and occasionally on the Portland Bloggers’ site. The planning of the events is what has been taking up a ton of time recently! I haven’t had the chance to write anything recently… blah. But, I needed a bit of a break. I have some story ideas brewing and can’t wait to get a second to write again!
Jenni, After all these years, I am reading your overwhelmingly sweet words… you warm my heart. Thank you for all the love and I’m so happy that I could provide such beautiful memories for you!
