I Photographed My Sister

My sister Glory just got married this last weekend. A friend of mine and talented photographer Matthew Land was the main shooter for the day. Ira and I did a private shoot with Glory & her new husband Drew.

Scouting the area for a good place to shoot was part of the adventure. I wore mammoth boots to tredge around the woods looking for perfect spots, glad I did, more then once I was ingulfed in mud and stinging nettle.

These images are ones that I shot of Glory & Drew. I’m looking forward to seeing Ira’s images as well as the images Matt took from the entire wedding day.

Enjoy & congratulations to my sister, isn’t she beautiful?

Hi Samuel – great shots and I agree, you DO have a beautiful sister. I must be getting old ’cause I can barely recognize the children I once knew in the special adults you have become. Was the wedding on the island?

Samuel, Great shots. I love the close-ups (4257) of Drew with a simple smile and Glory looking like she’s from the 1920s. Definitely my favorites.

Great images… something I miss very much in Colorado is the brilliant greens. Hope you all had a wonderful time at the wedding!
