Why would she devote so much time to our pictures? To quote her:
Jenna was my very first ever roommate at BYU (and makes the top 3 list of favorites, out of 32!), so she gets special treatment.
I still want to wait for the cd of prints I purchased with my package before I start my recaps, as I want to really convey the story of our day, not just the best photos. However, for the next few days I am going to choose a favorite photo from each of her posts and tell why I love it so much.
Let's start with a getting ready shot.
Reasons why I love this shot:
1. The lighting is amazing.
2. It's ultra dramatic.
3. You may think that I am giving thanks, or having an intensely emotional moment as I prepare for one of the most beautiful things I will ever do. Nope, I am freaking out because they are tugging on my head to get the veil in. I have a really tender head and I am kind of a baby about people pulling on my hair. My head was so sore after the entire thing was backcombed for what felt like hours. Ok, fine, it was like 20 minutes, but I think I only cried one time!
To see more shots of me getting ready, visit the post here (or don't and then it will be more of a surprise when I finally do tell all!)

I love that you're sharing the real story behind the photos. I totally thought you were leading a group prayer!
I love those candid shots where it looks like you're doing one thing but in reality you were thinking or feeling another.
It's almost like a little secret between you and the picture.
Well, I haven't followed your photographer's blog but I did go look and oh my goodness-- so amazing!!
I too love the story behind the image :)
If I didn't know the back story of the photo, I would assume you're trying to collect your thoughts. Your friend's pictures are BEAUTIFUL.
You are so lucky to have such a talented friend! I love the lighting of this shot too...but I think your commentary of what is really going on makes it better. Can't wait to see more!
(For some reason I can't leave my name and url because I'm not associated with any of the open ids so I had to use my super old AIM SN. haha Is there an alternative that I can do if I still have my own blog and don't want to use my aim sn?)
