Graceful Groom


The photojournalist in me can't help but to be inspired by other people. From the time I first meet a couple to their wedding day, I am always interested in learning about them and trying to be more than just some "camera guy".

Braeden and Chrissy's Wedding was no exception. I was so pleased to get to know them, their family, and their friends that by the ceremony I really felt like I knew them. The little I thought I knew would soon change once we made our way to the reception.

Braeden is a pretty stocky guy that looks like he could handle himself well in any situation, but, as his brother put it later in his toast to the couple, truly has a heart of gold. Despite the rugged exterior and soft chewy center, Braeden showed me he had another trick up his sleeve...he can dance!

I'm not talking the old junior high one-two, i'm talking drop it like it's hot, shake what your momma gave you dance! I saw everything from an Irish jig to things that don't have names yet (and they probably shouldn't).

It was the perfect end to a beautiful day for the bride and groom. Young, full of life and happiness, and head over heels in love...what more can you ask for. Congrats guys!
