Matthew & Karren
Matthew and Karren had an evening ceremony on the lake side of Mississippi Dunes golf course. It was an extremely touching ceremony about joining together Karren and her children with Matthew. You could see the importance of this to all of them. It was such beautiful ceremony filled with lots of love. The reception was quite possibly one of the most entertaining I've photographed! Matthew is a DJ/Karaoke extraordinaire as his profession (you can check him out at www.myspace.com/bookofmatthewkaraoke). So he had so many great trick's up his sleeve! The first was that he wrote a song for Karren and sang it to her himself. It was such a touching song...AND...Matthew can really sing! The wedding party also got the dance going when they danced to "baby got back" for their song...the best part was that Matthew actually did the rapping..again, totally blew me away! As the evening was starting to end for me, Matthew and Karren did one final surprise...they sang a duet to the song "your the one that I love" from the musical GREASE...with leather jackets in tow, they totally nailed it! I know the rest of the evening was just as fun for Matthew and Karren's guests :-)

Jessica, we just got home from a BBQ with all of Matthew's family!(my family now too) Before I checked my e-mail I had to check your blog! WOW! The pictures are awesome, Matthew and I started to tear up a bit when we saw the picture of both of us hugging Brichelle at the ceremony. That was the moment that many of our family members and friends lost it as they saw Brichelle start to cry during the ceremony. I am so glad that you were are photographer, your work is absolutely wonderful! I'm glad you caught the Grease song too!! :)
Jessica,
We just got home from a BBQ with Matthew's family! (my family now too) I just had to check out your blog before I even looked at my e-mail to see if anything was up yet. WOW! The photos are AMAZING!! Matthew and I thought that the day just FLEW by, and we were totally making fun of the field that we had to walk through, but those pictures are AWESOME!! You were right on the money with that!! I'm glad you captured the moment when the crowd lost it during the ceremony. Everyone said they were fine until Matthew hugged Brichelle and she started to cry. I'm glad you were able to see our duet, Matthew asked me the day before if I had a short black leather jacket and of course I did. We had planned to sing the song, but choreography was all my husband's idea!! Thank you for doing such an amazing job! We can't wait to see the rest! Thank you for making our special day come to life through your photography! We will SOOOO recommend you to all of our friends!!
Okay! I don't know these people but your pictures just made me cry at work! You capture emotions in your photography like I've never seen before!
