Carol and Brian

Carol and Brian were a spunky couple, with an equally spunky bridal party, and they had a wedding where we really got to know them through how they planned their wedding. We got to shoot at Manasquan Beach after the ceremony because Brian used to be a lifeguard there. It has to be said that even though beach sessions are supposed to be informal and fun, some people don't get into it. We did not have such a problem with this crew--- Carol looked like a cheerleader being held in the air by her trusted (we hope!) groomsmen.

When we got to Spring Lake the sun was setting and it got so dark that we could barely get the cameras to focus, but check out how we got the color to come back into the sky by lengtening our exposure. Does it look like 7pm? Nope!

But the growing darkness did give us an idea: Main Street in Spring Lake, full of ambient light from storefronts and streetlamps was the perfect place to wrap up our outdoor session with the bride and groom.

When we got to The Mill we had the pleasure of hearing the toasts and we can only hope, as John the bestman hopes, that Brian and Carol's wedding will be full of as much devotion as is usually shown during a beer run in a snow storm (great story!).

Hope you guys enjoy the pictures!
