Kristi and Tom

We have such a cool job. Every week we get to spend time with happy people who are sharing one of the most important days of their lives with us. And we get to hear the stories and get to know the families, and they get to know us.

So the story on this shot, as I understand it is; Tom’s grandfather was on a navy ship. While on the ship they had a lot of time on their hands, so these guys figured out how to take a coin and shape it into a ring by hammering on the coin and rolling around the edges (my crude interpretation, but it’s close).

Since Tom’s grandfather couldn’t be at the wedding, he made the two rings below (one from a quarter and one from a dollar), and Tom’s Dad presented the rings to the couple at the reception. Pretty cool stuff. Take a good look at the photo and you can read some of the words from the coin on the inside. Incredible craftsmanship.

The rest of the shots just tell the story of the day. It was a fun story…




I have a feeling Kristi’s done some modeling. She was just too easy to photograph!

Then there was another special presentation.


Congratulations to this great couple and their families. We hope you have a happy long life together.
