Blue October Wedding Slideshow: CB & Betsy

I am one lucky girl. Today was one of those rare Saturdays that I didn’t have a wedding planned…. I recieved a call around 11am this Saturday morning asking me to shoot at Austin’s wedding venue, Villa Antonia, for Mr. Ron Parks wedding photography- at first I wasn’t sure I wanted in until I found out it was for one of my favorite bands, Blue October’s, guitarist!! I, of course, could not turn the opportunity down. I am soooo glad that Ron invited me along (huge huge huge thank you for inviting me, did I mention that he’s also a really nice guy?), I also got to shoot with the recent newly wed Amy who I was anxious to shoot with anyway. Ben was a little jealous of the situation since he was already scheduled to 2nd shoot another wedding, so he showed up about 20 minutes before their departure. I tried not to act like a giddy school girl in front of the guys but on the inside I was really excited. I had a blast shooting the fun crowd. The live music by Taxi & Danny was awesome, not to mention I like them even more because they played my song… you know… ‘Sweet Caorline’ by Neil Diamond. ;)

CB & Betsy Hudson were super sweet and the wedding was gorgeous! I wasn’t planning on making a slideshow but I simply just could not narrow the images down to 20 or so… Is it really cheesy that I wanted to use a Blue October song to go to the slideshow pictures? Oh well, I did anyway.
I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos by Amy, Ron, and Julie.

Bride + Blue October

I love cute flower girls!!

My favorite picture of Mr. Justin Furstenfeld himself. :)

We had to take them away from the party for a little bit to get these more intimate portraits.

And of course, CB sang to Betsy, soooo sweet!

They knew the whole dance to “all the single ladies”, again, awesome.
