Lots of fun stuff coming in the next week or so. Brandi & Paul’s wedding on Saturday was fantastic and I’ll be working on that this week. Here’s a quick teaser…

They got so into the photos and we had a great time shooting around West Chester.

A coupla favorites:



Waiting for the ceremony to start…







I love it when churches are this well-lit.





I call this one “Two Dragons”…



Think I like this one best.





Or maybe this one. We popped into Kildare’s for some refreshment (nope, I wasn’t drinking!). Cheers!





It started to rain a little bit, but that just gave us the chance to bust out the umbrellas.



Then it was off to the lovely Overbrook Golf Club for the party!



The best man actually had the band back him while he sang the toast. Probably the best toast I’ve heard all year.





I love the emotion you see in parent dances.





CTO Park Central had the dance floor packed (and I mean packed) all night!





See?



All in all, a completely rockin’ wedding! Much more in the slideshow!

He crawled around in the grass for a bit…



But that sort of thing can only last so long…



So we added his cousin Vienna to the mix. That didn’t work quite so well either, as neither of them have the requisite balance.









Then it was back to the house for some eats. Sim has yet to learn about utensils.



We did teach him to put his hands in the air. (Everybody say hey! Ho! Hey! Ho!)



Which he got a kick out of, and continued doing it all night.



I’ll end with one of V, hanging out with her great-grandma.



Happy birthday Sim!
