Because Rebecca's Post Reminded Me
...that I never shared pictures from J & J's wedding.
A friend of mine from church married a wonderful man a few weeks back. Their meeting and eventual falling-in-love is the stuff of legends, but since it's not my legend to share, I'll leave it at that. I was honored to be a small cog in a celebration for which the Father had so clearly been at work. May they share many joyful years together!
I have over 300 pictures (!), and I wasn't even shouldering the brunt of the work (thanks, Rebecca). This long string of pictures is a drop in the bucket, and I culled about 20 additional pictures I had included when I realized how ridiculously long this post was. I don't think I'd ever want to be a wedding photographer. Golly.
She was a beautiful bride, even without the dress.
Better yet, though, once she wore white.
She and her girls were bubbling over and beautiful.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE that church and the colors/flowers matched so perfectly! I am struck at how happy everyone looks, especially the bride and groom! They are glowing with joy! What a beautiful day for a wedding! :)
as for the technical question, I wish I could help but I have no idea what to do and I use the same program, maybe you need to update it?
There are a few times that Picasa does strange things for me (never the sepia problem) but it acts like it has saved but it actually doesn't so instead of 'saving', I 'save a copy'. Usually, that does the trick. It makes an entirely new picture that SHOULD be what you wanted it to be in the first place!
I enjoyed looking upon their day through your perspective- you got some wonderful shots. My absolute FAVORITE one being the one with everyone watching the slideshow. Everyone from J&J to the smallest people in the back are all smiling! It is so stinkin' good.
And I love the one of someone tying her bow too. What a great shot. Yup- you now have to call yourself a professional. No denying it!
Fantastic photos, Abigail! What a beautiful day for a beautiful couple. Loved the church, flowers and even the bride's shoes! "Happy is the bride that the sun shines on!"
Much love!
Elizabeth,
Thanks for the tip. I thought of that the other day, but when I went to update it, it said that it already was updated. Boo.
Rebecca,
I already do that, too! I am stymied. And going batty. (Did I mention that?)
Also, spastically snapping 300+ pictures at a wedding does not a professional make...as one can obviously see. And I'm fine with that! It's much easier to have the title Annoying Mom with a Camera.
Molly,
Believe it or not, she attached all those little beads on the shoes herself. I can't even imagine... And you're right. They were happy, happy, happy!
