This post makes me laugh every year because it is filled with the photos that I don’t deliver to the our wedding couples – and you will soon see why! These are the moments of veil tosses, getting in each other’s shots, and testing lighting.
While I am putting together this post, I also always realize that we basically have wedding day uniforms. We wear the same things to SO MANY WEDDINGS! Haha! Thank goodness we don’t see the same people! When you find an outfit that works, you kind of just keep wearing it. I definitely had a favorite maternity shirt this season; in fact, I loved it so much I bought two in blue and one in pink!
It is also so funny to look back at my, um, expanding size this season. (Maybe “funny” isn’t the right word?). I thought I looked so pregnant during the summer, and now at more than 40 weeks pregnant (!!) I look back and think “I looked so great!” I’ve taken very few photos of myself during this pregnancy, so it actually is nice to see the transformation over the last (almost) ten months.
And it is always so fun to remember all of our great weddings this year. Kelsey, Justin, and I LOVE weddings. They are such happy, fun, beautiful days, and we have such a good time at every single wedding. At so many weddings, guests will come up and ask us if we are friends with the couple because we seem so happy to be there :) We really love celebrating weddings. There is no greater or happier day for a couple, and it is such an honor to be included.
Enjoy some of our ridiculous, awkward, silly, and fun moments from the past wedding season – starting with my absolute favorites – the veil toss!
Kelsey is a PRO at veil tosses! (Which I call “the bouquet toss” literally 50% of the time… I don’t know why!).
But I didn’t just have Kelsey and Justin as veil toss assistants this year! Kate’s awesome sister did the honors during Kate and Rob’s wedding, and this photo is too funny not to share!
These crack me up too much not to share :) Is it just me, or does it look like Kelsey is sneaking up on our couples each time? Haha!
Shaun and Nick’s amazing triplets were SO over photos at this point. Thankfully, Shaun, Kelsey, and Shaun’s mom were all ready to assist – because we needed three assistants to help remove pacifiers on the count of three! :)
And we often get into each other’s shots:
And here is me… just getting in everyone’s shot!
Kelsey is a PRO at adjusting the bride’s wedding gown!
I was pregnant for all but one wedding this year, so Kelsey and Justin definitely ended up carrying a LOT of gear on my behalf! They lugged the box, bags, light stands, and even, for a sunrise shoot, my tea! :)
Can you tell we have a lot of fun? :)
Selfie time! Here’s Kelsey getting a bathroom selfie! haha
Ok, this was last year, but it still cracks me up! Kelsey was holding the camera in the car and didn’t realize I had left it on hahaha
I am really into details :)
We get to be lighting test subjects A LOT!!
Yup, a lot!
Sometimes even sitting down!
“Ok, stand here.”
“Now here.”
“And now stand here.”
Kelsey is very patient!
We test light a LOT!
We like to pretend we are models during our light testing photos, too. Haha!
And we let dogs chase us for just the right shot! (This was Meredith getting Hunter the dog to run for some cute photos during his spring mini session!)
We make some friends at weddings, too – or run into friends we already know! :)
Kelsey said she had to get this shot to show my dedication – kneeling on the ground while pregnant! haha!
Kelsey taking a sneaky photo of me through the window – while I was taking a photo of the ceremony set up… with Justin in the background! haha!
I kind of love this shot from Giulia and Jeb’s wedding; Kelsey and Justin used their ceremony site for some awesome detail shots!
The many faces of Kelsey. Multiple weddings, same outfit! Haha!
And we love to make sure that not only do the bride and groom get a photo with their wedding cake, but that we do too! :)
We spend a lot of time at wedding ceremonies :)
I finally broke down and bought a maternity coat just for Becca and Todd’s wedding – and I am so glad I did! 
Just having fun photographing details at Kate and Rob’s gorgeous wedding:
Kelsey goes to great heights to get the shot. (This was at Sam and Jimmy’s wedding!).
Including climbing steps!
Or jumping into the bushes!! (This resulted in such a beautiful shot of the bridal party at Lauren and Andrew’s wedding!).
Ok, this isn’t a behind the scenes, but it is definitely a blooper, and totally cracked me up :)
Kelsey’s face here! 
And sometimes we get photos with the bride and groom!! These are cardboard cut outs of Karen and Scott!
Lighting sparklers at Lauren and Kiel’s wedding. (She lit a ton of these!)
You know, just taking photos of Kelsey while the bride and groom are hanging out in the background! (I promise I was checking lighting!)
Testing out the Light Sabers for Carli and Matt’s wedding! :) This series of shots is SO hilarious!
Kelsey, Justin, and I had such a wonderful year, and it is fun to see these accidental behind the scenes shots every year! I can’t wait for all of the fun weddings with my favorite team next year!
