Nothing left for me to do, just dance!

Okay, I don’t normally put any of our wedding shots up on my personal blog and I know you all religiously check our photography blog….you do don’t you….I mean you call yourself a stalker? Can’t anyone stalk properly these days? I am making an exception because this is my dear, dear friend Kristie, a.k.a. Kricket and many of my readers are also friends with her and I want to show you how purdy she looked. I can not take credit for these photos because I was in the wedding, BUT and this is a big BUT…almost the size of my arse….I did edit all 723 of these bad boys. And lets be honest, an edit is like taking a photo and putting it on acid….the colors, the movement, it comes alive. So…..enjoy a little Kristie and Dean. Yes, Kris, you will be happy to know they are done! I am sick of staring at your mug for hours on end.

This is my all time favorite shot. Don’t ask me why, photography is subjective…but I just love this one. Being all studly and such.

Kristie and Dean

Kricket contemplating her role as a dutiful wife.

Kristie and Dean

Actually, I lied, I did take this one. I took the camera for a moment and followed her into the john. The mirror isn’t dirty, it is just OLD! I love the lighting in this. Look at those luscious lips! ( I am so glad I have spell check. I just spelled luscious…lushous…makes sense to me!)

Kristie primping one last time

Her shoes were bronze, so I went with that and put a bronze tint to the photo. Go wide angle, go wide angle, it’s your birthday. I love that lens. Again, I didn’t shoot this, my beloved did.

the shoe shot

Kristie has the most infectious laugh. This is after they were pronounced and everyone went wild clapping and hollering. So cute…FINALLY!!!!!!!

Kristie and Dean

I never get sick of this shot. Every bridal group has their own “style”. I mean seriously, look at the dude all the way to the left…impressive!

The boys getting air

This is a super cool series Ryan shot from above. There are about 8 frames in a row of Dean twirling her around and dipping her. It would look awesome in a long, horizontal frame to put them in order.

Kristie and Dean

I don’t know, I can’t tell if they are happy or not.

Kristie and Dean

A little smooch after smashing cake in her face. Hey…watch that hand Deano, your mom is in the background!

After the cake smashing

Oh wait, there I am and where do you find me? Eating cheese of course! I am high fiving God for creating cheese as soon as I get to heaven. I make that face far too much, dial down the sass Kelly.

Who doesn't love cheese?

This is Dean’s brother, Dar, who happens to be one of the funniest people I know. He did the whole intro to the Napoleon Dynamite dance to Jamiroquai (note to self, do not name child this crazy, hard to spell, hard to say name.) I love the whirling effect in the photo with the shutter open longer. Nice job babe! It is actually a perfect picture to represent Dar.

Alright kiddos…beat it….go be husband and wife! Kristie, stop looking so sad!

    Those shots are great. Sigh, I wish I could have my wedding photographed over again. We made a bad choice. In our defense, her samples were great. That’s just not what we got and of course it was too late to do anything about it.

    Oh I’m totally gonna start stalking your photo blog! These shots are so AWESOME! But I think I use that word way too often. But fo’ real!
    So how’s about a free stay at Casa de OMM for me to pay you to do some preggo shots of me later? Then a return free stay once bambina arrives of course! ;) Seriously. No joke. Free stay PLUS I pay you.

    You called the bathroom a “john”. Who are you? This isn’t the woman I married. I want Kelly back. She was much classier.

  13. 13 Kricket Oct 3rd, 2007 at 8:06 am

    Aww, Ryan and Kelly–these are awesome!! I am SO glad that we had you guys take our pics!! Now, we get to re-live the whole day over again–woo hoo! We love these!!Can’t wait to see more this week! I love all the candid photos of our best and most memorable moments–especially since I couldn’t be everywhere that day!
    Love it, love it, love it!!

    I saw these photos when you posted them on Facebook and was totally wowed by them. I just assumed that you had taken them. And YES, I do check your photography blog. I love the way you’ve got it set up with an focus on each individual couple and not just a blur of random shots in a single gallery.
    My favorite shot is you and the cheese. :)
