Amy and Daniel are married!

People came from near (downtown Austin) and far (Germany and Arizona) to celebrate Amy and Daniel and their truest of love for one another. The day began and ended as a celebration of the obvious love that God had brought together, and it was so much fun to be a part of it all. It was so much fun, in fact, I think Mike and I were two of the last three to leave that day (props to the hilarious Tim as well). :) Amy and Daniel (et al) were so much fun to shoot, in part, I think because they are sooooo, sooooo happy. Their smiles were unfading and their snuggling unending, which makes for good times when it comes to photos. Another fun aspect of the day was that Daniel and his groomsmen were totally digging the cam. Sometimes, I think, the men at a wedding have a sort of "I'll participate in these photos, but I don't have to love it" kind of inclination (at least at the beginning of the group shots...until they realize that Mike and I are the most fun ever). ;) BUT, Daniel and his fellows were so ready for their close-up from the first click of the shutter. They were even throwing out ideas for additional poses and were sad when we told them they had to give the ladies a turn in front of the lens. Not to be outdone, the ladies worked it out as well.

Thanks so much for all the fun, Amy and Daniel. Congratulations!!

I think that the next two photos show the degree of compatibility between these two lovebirds.
