On November 15, I had the extreme pleasure of photographing the Big Greek Wedding of Elaine and Mark at the Greek Annunciation Church in Dayton. I was lucky to have Melissa come down from Michigan to shoot this with me, along with my friend and fellow local photographer Kevin Keefer. Despite the ugly weather, we had a fantastic time with Elaine and Mark and everything was just beautiful. There are many favorites from this one, so enjoy the show!<\/span><\/p>\n

We started with the rehearsal dinner the night before at the Dayton Country Club, which is very old and, I hear, haunted.<\/span>

On the wedding day, we arrived early enough to be able to capture the cake being assembled. It was gorgeous!<\/span><\/p>\n

I absolutely love this detail shot of Elaine’s dress and ring.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The crowns and candles.
<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mark and his parents walked up the aisle together. I really liked that.<\/span><\/p>\n

Melissa got this awesome shot of the flower girl being lined up for her grand entrance.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Melissa took this fisheye shot of the sanctuary. The place was magnificent.<\/span><\/p>\n

I love this shot. I was lucky enough to get to stand at the front.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mark’s dad gave a hilarious toast.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Just look at the way he looks at her.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now, onto the dancing and money-throwing! Grandma was the first one out of her seat!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Open wide!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Greek band was awesome. The music was really great and these guys were hilariously funny. Notice, if you can, the Home Depot sticker on the back of his instrument.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A quiet dance.
<\/span><\/p>\n
