Seems like just the other day I was driving through beautiful fall colors to visit Rachel from my home in Bozeman. What a difference a year can make... One of the best parts of being a wedding photographer is seeing a new story every week. Almost every weekend this summer I captured images as stories played out in front of my camera, each one closer to the day I would get to tell my own. One of the main reasons I became a photographer was preservation. The idea of forgotten memories scares me, I want everything to be remembered, savored, and basked in. So much of what we do is fleeting, over before its even a whisper. I think thats why we search so hard for that other half, that best friend to share the journey, because when the day is done it only matters if you had a witness, a person to remember the story with.
A person in that photograph with you....
Below are images of Rachel and I captured by my good friend Chris Rebo, also a amazing photographer. He is being awesome and letting me share a few here:)
In the midst of edit, edit, edit, shoot, edit, drive, edit, edit, Rachel and I took time to cake taste yesterday. It was by far one of my favorite parts of wedding planning. Another one of my favorite parts was our engagement party a few weeks ago. We had a few friends over, and my best friend Jon and his wife Jenni were able to come up from Bozeman. We ate smores, drank, and sat around the bonfire. All these images were taken on Ilford delta 3200 film, and HP5, on my Yashica 124g, and Mamiya 645af.
