[the Carroll Family]

I may have mentioned a couple of weeks back that it didn't get much better than photographing Laura and Greg's wedding at Park Country Club.....what is pretty darn close is getting to work with Laura's sister Kristen and her beautiful family.  Little Cameron was all sorts of sweetness with his cooing and smiling...I wanted to eat him for brunch.  Some of my faves....

[Andrea and Andy]

It's hard to believe that this is my last wedding of 2010...granted, my next wedding isn't too far away but looking back I can't believe that I'm here.  I love looking ahead to the season, getting excited to work with all of the wonderful people I have briefly met and seeing new venues and fresh ideas.  Then, suddenly, it all breezes past and the cycle begins anew.  
Andrea and Andy's wedding was one that I took very late in the season, and I have to admit that I was tentative, as the weather in Buffalo in November is usually pretty lousy (happy to say that this hasn't been too much the case thus far!)  Mother nature proved me entirely wrong and the day was magnificent, complete with a trip to the Butler Mansion in Buffalo for some pictures before the reception, and a new venue for me, the Timber Lodge in Akron.  And the two of them were as happy as any couple I've ever seen...I was so thrilled to be a part of it!

cutest baby boy ever?

So the church was actually built by Andy's relatives of long ago, who had come to America through a bad storm...they prayed that if they made it, that they would build a church....they made it!

sweet, sweet. My favorite of the whole lot!

My photography professor back in undergrad would make us print, print and reprint to get the image perfect....this would definitely NOT please his aesthetic sensibilities, but I just adore the light and the crazy things it does.

So  I say goodbye to the wedding scene for a bit....but I will definitely be around blogging some mini shoots!
