Rain, rain, go away! When I got to the house there was a bit of a down mood since the weather was not cooperating at all. Fortunately the mood lightened a bit when the rain turned to a light sprinkle in plenty of time for the ceremony (I don’t think the Absolut hurt the mood either). Amber’s parents house was a perfect spot for this cowboy wedding. A large beautiful backyard with a forest backdrop gave a great setting for Amber & Kris to become man & wife.

As soon as the ceremony was over the rains came back around while we took some time taking some portraits in the truck on a country road. Thanks to little Matthew for his help with this part of the day. By then we were all wet & the rain didn’t much matter anymore. The night finished up with a p-a-r-t-y back at the house.

We had such a great time throughout the whole day. I love it when I’m not just the guy with the nice camera, but welcomed just like one of the family. This was one of those special occasions.

Thanks & congratulations Amber & Kris!

Also, big thanks to Eric Strate for his help shooting the day.

No thanks go out to the great horned owl that ran in to my car on the way home. It was huuuuuge. I’m ok with only seeing owls in the zoo from now on.
