Heidi & Zsolt’s Rainy Weddingwritten by dav.d
Rain does not mean a wedding is ruined – far from it. The original plan for this spring wedding was for a backyard ceremony, however, rain clouds and rain were strong. So we moved the wedding ceremony indoors and we made it work. The ceremony was beautiful! Lavendar was the color and scent for the wedding. As a wedding photographer it was unique – this was my first wedding were the ceremony was in English and Hungarian.
The first few photos were taken after the rain and the ceremony – but they are amoung my favorites because the light was gorgeous. And the beautiful light just bathes the wedding couple, and as a photographer you try to find the best light to create the photographs.
The flower girl had spunk! This was the third time she had been flower girl and she was a professional. After the ceremony she did launch lavendar at me and other guest – but it was a lot of fun. Check the SmugMug gallery to see all the photos from the wedding.
I love this photo – for the focus on the candle. Sometimes photos are for the photographer – and we hope other people feel that connection.
As part of the Hungarian tradition – and that Zsolt is a stone mason trained in Europe – vows are exchanged holding hands and placing hands on a stone carved by Zsolt. Simply amazing craftsmanship.
Zsolt is from Hungary and he has family members who were unable to attend the wedding. As a tribute to those family members there were 3 chairs with a single rose each.
Flowers adorn the wedding cake – I love the detail shots.
I love real wedding cakes – I know the tradition is to have half real cake and half fake cake. Maybe I am just a fan of cake
As soon as the clouds began to break and we had the rain stop we went out doors for some photography. As we waited for the groom I took a number of photos of the bride and the flower girl. I love the colors of the leaves after the rain – the color just popped.
This is my favorite photograph of the day – it just has a fun story. I did set up the situation but the flower girl played along perfectly.
You can’t have rainbows without rain. And we had rainbows appear out the front door and so we snapped a number of pictures before the rainbows disappeared. I always have my camera in hand for any sudden photography moment. Be prepared for the sponateous situation should be the motto for every wedding photographer.
The mother of the bride and the bride were a gorgeous pair. I love photographing them together.
I love photographing the wedding rings. And flowers are often the best backdrop for the wedding rings. During the reception I will hunt down the wedding rings and photograph them – and return them quickly before you have a chance to miss them.
