Stolen moment

After all the fussing, fretting and furious flurry of activity surrounding the wedding ceremony becomes a thing of the past, the new bride and groom relax and simply begin to enjoy the moment. I love being there when it happens.

Photos from Carlecia and Philip's wedding this past Saturday. The bride was originally from Elgin, moved to New York City and made a career in city government. She returned to Elgin with the man of her dreams and was married in the presence of friends and family from both locales. A reception will be held this coming Saturday in NYC. I'm processing several hundred photos and making selections for a slideshow to be shown at the reception. Two down, lots to go.
