Last Sunday I was fortunate enough to be able to photography Stuart and Amy’s wedding.  While they are fun just by themselves, they made this event spectacular with the detail in their wedding planning.

To be honest, I have never shot a celtic wedding;  But I am not sure how many people have either.  I knew there would be a lot of color; and boy was I right.  Everywhere I looked there was red.  Red red and more red.  Just amazing.  To boot, they picked a perfect place, Callanwolde Fine Art Center in Decatur. The planner at Callanwolde, Khadijah, was so great.  She just made my life so easy.

It will take me a bit of time to go through everything, but I wanted to share a few images from the day.

Before I do that, I owe a ton of thanks to Nat Guname.  I don’t think I would have been able to do what needed to be done or capture the essence of the day without him as a 2nd shooter. Thanks Nat!

Each of the groomsman wore a kilt and appropriate attire.  Just amazing in the detail.

Nat and I were doing some portrits of Amy before the ceremony.  We had lights at the top of the stairs and at the bottom.  For one of the shots, I ran upstairs to adjust the lights.  As I looked down, I saw the below.  I yelled down (I know, not polite, but that is what I did) and asked Amy to stand still.  And the results speak for themselves.

Stuart has 3 amazing children from a previous marriage.  All were part of the ceremony and participated.  When we were doing some portraits of Stuart, one of them placed their hand on Dad’s shoulder.  And I had a vision. This is the result.  I love this shot.

Without question, this is my favorite shot of the day.  All of the groomsman getting ready for a shot and there was Stuart’s son looking up at him.  Just perfect and so touching.
