In March of 1972 a country singer named Donna Fargo released a song entitled the Happiest Girl in the Whole USA. It was written in the voice of a newlywed girl singing to her husband, and if I’ve ever seen that song come to life it was this weekend. And it wasn’t one-sided in the least.
Lori and Joshua met when Lori was leaving a music club (listening to a bluegrass band) and she tripped coming down the steps. Joshua caught her, and I’ll say that was one catch he’ll never forget.
These folks were laughing and smiling all day. What a great group of folks…
This couple decided they would meet and take photos before the ceremony. I can’t tell you how much this moment can add to the excitement of the day. It’s not the traditional way of doing things, but it’s the couple’s choice. And we, as photographers, can capture the moment they first see each other… the look on their faces… the joy and emotion of their friends who share the moment.
It never hurts to have a nice little antique purple truck in the parking lot…
Josh is a musician and Lori is a music lover… pretty good combination imo. Congratulations and best wishes to this great couple.
BUT WAIT. Not only did we have a great couple and a beautiful wedding, we also learned how you deal with not having pierced ears but wanting to wear pierced earrings to your wedding.
First you start with a professional ear piercing kit (approved by the surgeon general, I’m sure..)
Then you make sure you have the proper chemicals which will not only kill the germs but works great as an anesthetic.
Then you solicit the assistance of a highly trained professional.
Maybe two…
Ouch. (But she swears it didn’t hurt. See what I mean about the anesthetic???)
Voila… I’m not sure I personally recommend this particular method, but hey… I’m just here to document the day.
Scott - What a great couple. You can tell these two will have an awesome life together.
Ashley - These pics are awesome! Sooooooo funny!
