Wow!  This was amazing.  Courtland wanted a Parisian wedding, and she did it!  She had thought of every detail.  It was fun to be a part of this day. 

I really did something quite different when it came to editing.  I wanted to give my own “french” interpretation on the images.  As I started to edit them, I really wanted to work on the album layout at the same time to make sure that I was creating the look I thought I wanted.  So… thanks for being patient with me on this one, but I have it all completed and WOW!  I’m loving the final album.  (Don’t worry… I’ll give a sneak peak.)

I have never spent so much time editing a wedding before!  All of the layers and steps needed to create this look was very time-intensive.  The files were HUGE, and my new MAC computer (which is not supposed to crash) froze several times a day.  I spent more time restarting and re-booting the computer than I did actually designing!  AHHHH!

Anyway, I do hope you enjoy.  I would love to get lots of feedback on what you think about the look.  And, Courtland, I do hope that my interpretation of  your “french wedding” is just what you hoped for!

Now the pics.  There are a LOT… so enjoy.  And make sure you scroll down to see the album pages.

Her dress is amazing!  Look at all of this detail.

Their reception was held at the McDowell Mountain Marriott.  I love this venue… the staff is amazing to work with and these arches are just so great for photos!

These guys are great!  I really had a blast working with them.  Remember the fun engagement session we had?  Click here to see the unbelievable image we captured.

This church is so beautiful.  It was my first time shooting at St. Bernard of Clairvaux. 

And now for a few of the album pages.  Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.  It is quite different from the more simple, clean style that I usually design with.  I think I am liking the change, but what do you think?

OK, and now for the best for last (HA!).  I told  you that Courtland thought of everything, right?!?!  Well, she really, truly did.  She had berets for all of us working the event to wear.  I was thinking that we were going to get to go to Paris as well for the honeymoon… come on… we would TOTALLY FIT IN!  Thanks Mandy for all your help on this one… as always, you did a great job and you look great in the beret!
