Brandize was a referral from a wedding I photographed a few years ago. Thanks Davoya!
When Brandize called me, her wedding was scheduled for March 6. Unfortunately, I was booked so would you believe she moved her wedding date to the following week for me? WOW, that warmed my heart and goes a long way with me.
As you will see, Damon had foot surgery a couple of weeks before the wedding and he was determined to walk down the aisle without his crutches. Being a U.S. Marine, he courageously endured the pain and stood at the alter patiently awaiting his bride. After the ceremony the Marines performed a sword detail and welcomed them to the Marine family as they exited the sanctuary. When they arrived at the reception (The Brio Tuscan Grill), Damon yells proudly, "I'm rich" as they walk in the ballroom. Both are very photogenic people and are deeply in love with each other - so much so that they couldn't keep their hands off each other.
Congratulations Brandize and Damon and thank you for allowing me to document incredible new beginnings in your lives.

My mother LOVES ALL THE PICS!!!!!!
We were all floored with the first picture on the blog!! -And you know my hubby was supplying the coffee and doughnuts while we staked out your website from across the street! LOL! Yeah, we went from stalkers to the stake out for days, but it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT! ...And now we can sleep... :-)
We're glad you suggested that small photo opt towards the end. That shows you never give up; you're one photograher who works TILL THE END! -A rare commodity in this time and day to see a photographer care about the photos just as much as the couple!
Brandize and Damon
