Big Ol' Texas Wedding
Claudia first contacted me a couple years ago. She sent me a nice email saying that she'd come across my work and really liked it. At the time she wasn't even engaged. Later on, we started working together on a photo related project. Well, she got engaged about a year ago and so she asked me to be her photographer. I was happy and honored. :-)
The wedding took place in Pflugerville which is about 30 minutes from Austin. (Toto, we're not in San Diego anymore!)
There was no shortage of kids at this wedding. They practically took over the dance floor later that night. (Claudia - you're next!)
Brandon's eye's almost popped as he saw Claudia walk down the aisle. He even had to look away for a sec.
The church was packed to the rafters with guests. It was standing room only with people coming out the back. Out here in California, a lot of people skip the ceremony and just cut straight to the reception. They do things a little different here in Texas.
One thing that we couldn't do though was move around during the ceremony. The pastor wouldn't let us get near the front of the church.
Claudia was radiant!
Claudia and Brandon have been fixing up a cute little house for the past few months. It was almost right across the street from the church so we popped on by for a couple of shots. We couldn't stay long since everyone was waiting for us at the town hall.
I've gotta say, you haven't been to a wedding until you've done the grand march. It's just one big conga line done hoedown style. Leading it isn't for the faint of heart. You've got 500 people following your moves so if you screw up, you've got one big traffic jam. The groomsman who lead the charge commented beforehand, "I was born for this stuff!" And he was.
The father-daughter dance was emotional. There were more than few tears shed. Claudia's not going too far though. I think they moved in just a couple doors down from her folks. Good thing everyone gets along. ;-)
Congratulations Claudia! I remember back when we were talking about whether Brandon was going to propose. I'm glad he did!
