Karen and Mike's wedding
Karen and Mike got married at Summit where her family has gone for years. I had never been there and was stunned by how beautiful it is. They met on the football field at Summit and the rest is history. When I met Karen, I knew right away that she was someone with a big heart. When she talked about Mike and how they met and how their relationship evolved, she couldn't help but smile - a BIG smile. These two are perfect together. I couldn't wait for their wedding and now that it is over, I wish we could do it all again! Anyway ... here we are with some photographs from their wedding day ...
The girls got ready at Summit and I photographed their every move ...
Here are the dresses all hanging ready to be put on ...
Then we hung up Karen's dress to be photographed ...

I loved Karen's bouquet ...
She had photos of all of her grandparents hanging from her bouquet so that they were with her all day!

I liked the symmetry of this shot ... with Karen's mom on one side and Karen on the other ...
Karen (photographer) was busy photographing the guys while I was with the girls. Here are a couple of her shots ... Mike reading Karen's card to him ... Then ... we lost one. Zonked out.
the girls finish getting ready ...
so they could all help Karen get into her dress ...
Here is a shot of Karen through the door to her room and a reflection of her parents talking in the hallway ...

Yay!!! I just got home from the wedding I shot today and saw your comment! I'm so glad you love them. Your CDs are on their way!!
They are great! Summit is such an amazing place. I was stunned by how beautiful it was when I was there for a game. Love the ones after the ceremony.
I really love these photos, especially the vintage feel of the first couple in this post. What type of actions did you use for them? So amazing!
