Shantavia was hard at work taking the wedding photos. There were major lighting issues inside the church. She hopes to get some outside shots later. Here are a few of the wedding photos. I put together a quick 1 min slideshow, which has quite a few more of the photos.
This picture is one of the last ones taken. Rod and Danielle started getting a little too comfortable. Hey, there are still people in the church!
Luckily all the ladies, except for Sunni, were still in the church.
Shantavia meant to retake this picture without the table. Oops. It's one of my favorite shots, though. Look at little Ms. Ciana. She got the pose and the smile going.
Right about this time, Rod and Danielle started looking at each other all googly eyed. Then it got a little heated in the church. Hence, the picture near the top.
This was not a wedding picture. Shantavia just captured these two as they were waiting for another photo. Jacob has set his eyes (and hands) on Nicole's earring.
Awww, such a sweet couple. Actually Ian is being asked about the woman in the back.
Antoinette finally gets to have a word with Tony. She didn't really want anything. She, too, is feeling a little nostalgic after the wedding and just wanted a moment with her hubby.
"Are you okay?" (Mike)
"Yes, I am just exhausted. I can't wait to take a nice long bath and crawl under the bed." (Adele)
Deep down this is not what Mike wants to hear. He was really hoping to have a nice romantic night with his wife that he hasn't seen in about a month now.
"So now does that mean you have two moms?" (Jessica)
"She's my stepmom." (Nicole)
"What does that mean?" (Jessica)
"I don't know." (Nicole)

ReplyDeleteMs. Leo - Thanks! I am always amazed at some of the expressions those kids give me when I am taking pictures.
DeleteThey all look so beautiful! Looks like Adele might finally be able to relax soon. :)
ReplyDeleteAlura - Thanks! Adele shouldn't get too excited. Those receptions can be grueling. She is still on the hook for quite a few activities.
DeleteSmashing pictures! Now I realy can't wait for the recepetion!
ReplyDeleteVerona - Thanks! I'm anxious for the reception, too.
DeleteWow your pics came out Great you totally captured the moment in every shot good work. I like the family pic the most their family has grown together!
ReplyDeleteTinisha - Thanks! They took a little longer than I expected, but it was worth it in the end. Their family is blending really well together.
DeleteHello from Spain: Wow, Wow ... Shantavia did a great job. She is a professional photographer. I like all the family photos. Vanessa really have a wonderful blog. Keep in touch
ReplyDeleteMarta - Shantavia was working that camera! She kept things moving to keep the kids from getting tired. Thanks for the wonderful comments.
DeleteOk I see them trying to get freaky save that for the honey moon good pictures by the way props to shantavia
ReplyDeleteJessika - When we were doing that part of the photoshoot, I looked at them and said, "oh goodness, here we go." I tell you, when they look at each other they just get this twinkle in their eye. I'm going to hire someone else to shoot the honeymoon video. It's going to be too much for me.
DeleteSo beautiful pictures. I remember the doll wedding we tried to make with my friend many years ago. We dreamt of a beautiful wedding, but there were no church decorations, no beatiful clothes for the family and guests, no even any normal clothes at all for most of the dolls, especially for males. So it was more ridiculous than beautiful. When I look at your doll wedding, I think that it looks like something we dreamt about at that time.
ReplyDeleteDukasha - Thanks! That is a funny story. We have all had those doll moments in the past that didn't quite work out like we imagined. I am happy that this wedding is helping to bring back those memories.
DeleteBeautiful pics. Hi Vanessa, stopping by to say hello and thank you for your encouraging words during out time of need. We really appreciated it! James is doing well and out of the bed now. He dressed for the first time today! I just can't get over his speedy recovery!! He sends his love. Love you!
ReplyDeleteLoretta - It's so nice to see you visit. What an ordeal you and James have been through. It is amazing how one minute things can be just fine and then the next minute someone is fighting for their life. James wasn't going to leave you. That's what that speedy recovery is all about. Hugs to bought of you. Love you. I will visit soon.
DeleteNice slideshow! I absolutely love that the children/families are so prevalent in your stories.
ReplyDeleteGeorgia Girl - Thanks! I just love kids in general, and fashion doll kids is no exception. They just crack me up.
DeleteI love the photos ... seeing people interact. Like being there. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteD7ana - Thanks! They are going to be just like me when I got to my reception. WIPED OUT! However Adele is feeling at a given time, is exactly how I am feeling at that moment.
DeleteWhat lovely photos - Shantavia (and you) is a brilliant photographer. Poor Mike, but Adele will be feeling better tomorrow when the receptiom is over.
DeleteCarrickters - Thanks! Shantavia did me proud. Mike is still hoping for a miracle. LOL!
