Wedding - Lauren & Tim

I usually don't post weddings I shoot on the blog. Mostly because I shoot so many, it would seem more like a wedding blog, than anything else. But that may just be me being self-conscience. And as Tim Keller says, "“Not self-conscious nor self-confident, a Christian is liberated to be self-forgetful.”

This entry was posted on the A Bryan Photo Blog as well.



Lauren & Tim's wedding took place on October 18th, in the historical city of New Orleans, LA. Rob, Chase, and I got our first hint of how incredible the day was going to be when we met up with Lauren and Tim the morning of for a little walk around the city. "Just shoot it like a lifestyle shoot", Lauren told me, and I gladly took her advice (I mean, she is the Creative Director of Martha Stewart Body & Soul).



After our walk about, we followed Lauren as she went to get her hair styled. A few hours later, she was in her dress, ready for pictures.

It's hard to describe, but during those few hours the guys and I must have fallen into a time machine a traveled back to the 1920's. I mean, how classic does Lauren look?!



Tim must have followed in his own time machine, because when we met up with him a couple hours later, he was sporting his own class. The tie and the hat kill me, and I may have to steal them for my own wedding!



When we reached the ceremony and saw the small intimate gathering of family and friends, it became clear why the day felt so timeless. The day was about Lauren and Tim: their love, friendship, and family. And as Lauren stepped down the stone pathway on the arm of her father, there were not only tears of sincerity, but also smiles of joy. After the "I Do's" and "Kiss your Bride", Lauren and Tim, stayed at the alter as Champaign was distributed, and before the party began, they raise a toast to everyone who had given so much of their own lives to them.



After the tears were wiped away, there was nothing left to do, but celebrate.



In the Spring of the 2009, this wedding will be featured in Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine. Be on the lookout!

Peace. - Caleb
