Audrey & Nick July 30th, 2011
Audrey and I first meet about 3 years ago when she responded to a bogus job posting (long story, don’t get me started). In spite of the fact that the posting was totally made up we got together for coffee one afternoon and went on to work together for a good year and a half or so. So when, over coffee, she told me that they were moving and getting married …. on MAUI I pretty much jumped at the mere thought of it. Now I’d like to point out that she’s shot for a number of other photographers, so she had other options but she picked ME! And I felt so honored on many levels.
The ceremony was lovely and fun. It’s not often I’m this lucky enough to get this kind of available light in a church. So many sweet moments it was hard to pick.
Classic!-this is constantly one of my favorite moments.
Church formals-ya got to have them. But you can have fun with them.
The ceremony was held at St Therease Church in Kihei, from there we headed to Olowalu Plantation about half way between Kihei and Lahina for some photos and boy was I in heaven….I think Audrey might have picked this place just for me.
Come on, a rainbow-when does that ever happen!
Timing is EVERYTHING!
In the ruins of the old warehouse.
By the time we arrived at the reception held at the Pioneer In in Lahaina the evening light was gorgeous!
After a blessing from Audrey’s Dad the buffet was opened.
I know, I know, it’s probably overkill but what can I say-we’re from Seattle we don’t get these kind of sunsets very often.
A number of folks gave heartfelt toast, if really was a sweet moment in time.
Photo booth fun! Now THIS is how to have a photo booth. Simple backdrop and fun props. Oh, Those crazy kids.
I must confess, Father/Daughter dances always get me.
Nick’s grandparents were also celebrating their SIXTIETH wedding anniversary. That’s not something you get to share in everyday.
One of the things Audrey and I always talked a lot about is how wedding DJ’s seem to only have 1 play list: At last, We are family, Brick house….just to name a few. So with that in mind they spent a lot of time looking for and interviewing DJ’s. Their guy kicked ass! At one point I put my camera down and started dancing.
