Brittany and Scott - another HOT one

This was one of the warmest, muggiest weddings I can remember (along with Karen & Kris's the day before). We spent a lot of time outside... about 75% at least, and I had to stay outside to keep my gear from fogging up. Even when we went to the waterfall and field, I couldn't use the air conditioning because it would fog everything up. Brittany and Scott were great sports about it, I felt bad for Scott in his suit, but they both were amazing to tolerate the humidity so well (I guess when you live in Florida for half the year you sort of get used to it).
Their ceremony and reception was held at the Wilds Golf Club in Prior Lake, most of these first few pictures were taken at the entrance and over at a field across the street. The ceremony, reception and food (they had 9 different meals to choose from) were fabulous.
I have to give a special thanks to Alica Mady for helping out that day, second shooting and stopping things from blowing away.

Kristopher & Karen - Hitched in the heat!

First of all I'd just like to apologize for the random order of this post. It is coming to you from boonieville on a very slow internet connection and my laptop isn't having the best day (this post has taken me about 3 hours to put together).
Karen and Kristopher had a wonderful wedding (albeit a warm one) a few weeks ago. They had a very busy lead up to it, buying a house, moving to a different state and having a wedding in MN. But it went off without a hitch. They are a fantastic couple, very easy going and a pleasure to be around. Their wedding party entrance was one of the best ones I've seen, and the speeches were amazing (but what do you expect from trained actors and doctors).
I'd like to give a special thanks to Aaron Mullins for assisting and second shooting and Alicia Mady for shooting during the ceremony (the church had some of the strictest rules I've ever seen so Alicia was able to pose as a guest to get around them).
