Yesterday I got a text from Amy.  ”Hey girl, we are back from our honeymoon,  and I saw the pictures. YOU ARE SO AMAZINGLY TALENTED!! Thank you so so much.”

Here is the first of many videos from their wedding.

The reception was more like a dance party with non-stop action on the dance floor.  With tons of carnival food (popcorn, peanuts, cotton candy, and corn on the cob!) and vegetarian treats, no one was going hungry at this wedding.  Amy’s good friend Kristina of Rise Up Cakes made all vegan cupcakes and of course the cake.  It was all so delicious. 

Amy had a wardrobe change (Betsy Johnson!) and we hit the photobooth.

A lot of hard work and love were put into this wedding.  All the painted items, fabrics, balloons, and details were hand made by Amy, Jesse, and friends.  

I am really happy I got to be a part of this day and proud to hang my wedding hat up on this one.   The baby is due in a few weeks and I am totally ready for a little family time.  

I have already been booking up 2010 and looking forward to getting back in the saddle in May.  Between now and then, I will still be “in the office” but taking a break from on location work.  I will also be updating the blog with the few underwater sessions I have in the works and of course baby news!

Why would someone choose a circus themed wedding?  If your grandfather is the oldest living master clown Frosty Little, that’s why!  

The Bride, Amy, told me this story about going to see the circus in New Jersey where she grew up and watching her grandfather perform.  

She was tattooing me at the time so I couldn’t easily take notes. 
Pretty neat. 

I am sure soon enough this wedding ceremony will be posted on youtube. When it does, I will post a link for sure.   There wasn’t a dry eye in the crowd!

Introducing Team Awesome:

Congrats Amy and Jesse!  I hope you are having an amazing honeymoon. 

Up next, vegan cupcakes, the photo booth, and a dance party under the big top.

Amy and Jesse are just about the cutest and most original couple ever.  Jesse is a super talented musician.  Amy is an accomplished tattoo artist and tv star. 

With the help of all their family and friends, they pulled off a pretty amazing carnival themed wedding at Moli’i Gardens. 

Here it is (the reason I walked and swam so I could have enough energy to shoot a 7 hour wedding at 8 1/2 months) Part One of  Amy and Jesse’s wedding.

Up next, dancing wedding party, top hatted father of the bride, and photo booth.
