Cindy and Paul - Day 3


Sorry about the delay for Day 3 of Cindy and Paul. I had a wedding this weekend. Without further delay the Wedding Day for Cindy and Paul. My day started quite unusual. I started with a trout I had caught Friday night for breakfast. I never ever catch fish when I fish, but Friday night went out fishing on the dock with a bunch of other wedding guests, and Midnight Bob at Cabin Bluff. You see, this was a three pound trout. I am told that is trophy size. I was asked if I wanted to keep it, and I said only if I can eat it, and the fine folks at Cabin Bluff made it happen. WOW!

Friday I got to watch everyone shooting clays, on Saturday my wife and I got to participate. That is so much fun! I had a blast, and I can not wait to get my own shotgun! It is going to be my new hobby! So, if any of you are looking for a birthday gift for me... LOL!

After lunch I was off to photograph the bride getting ready for the wedding that is now just a few hours away. Everything was right there at Cabin Bluff, so it was super easy to make it over to get a few shots of Paul, the groom, get dressed as well.

I had been raining a lot over the long weekend, but for the day of the wedding there was a lot of threating skies, but except for a few showers right at the start of the reception it was smooth sailing. Everything was beautiful. The ceremony had two readings one from Cindy's brother Christian, and another from Paul's father. Both were very warm indeed.

At the reception General Schwarzkopf told us the story of how he heard about Mrs. Schwarzkopf being pregnant. It was very touching. The best man Chance gave what I would have to say one of the best toasts I have heard. It was so thought out and touching.

It was an honor to be part of your big weekend guys! Thank you so much for everything! Here is slideshow #1 and slideshow #2. Seriously, it is really hard to pick images for a blog post for this wedding. There is so much to choose, but hopefully I represented the weekend well. It was really sad to go Sunday morning.

Enjoy!

I love this dress. No idea who the maker is, but I love how simple it is.

Wedding time!

A good catch!


Cindy and Paul had the extremely talented Goliath Flores take care of the music at both the wedding and reception. You can check him out on iTunes. Seriously, this guy rocks!

The lovely cake was done by the fine folks at "I Do".... Cakes. I Love the simple elegant design.

Watch out Paul! The General does not look pleased to see you dancing with Mrs. Schwarzkopf... LOL!
