The Colors of Fall

You can not ask for a more perfect time of year than fall.  So it may sprinkle or get a bit chilly, but I don't think there are many people that can say they hate these few months.  *PLUS* It is the beginning of hoody weather ( who doesn't love that?!) 

Autumn is also the time of year where mother nature becomes an artist and paints the world in stunning, radiant colors.  On behalf of photographers everywhere, I'd like to thank mother nature for this!  Right around the middle of October, just about the time you have had your 39th pumpkin spice latte of the season, you will see the trees have changed and are rush with hues of rusty reds,  burnt oranges, and golden yellows.  It is no wonder this is one of the most sought after times for a wedding!  

Let's hope into my little time machine and had back to last fall.  It was my first experience as lead photographer, and I was extremely excited with what I had to work with that day.  Nestled up in Moon township is a beautiful old mansion surrounded by trails, streams, and nature's finest display of leaves!  

I had a wonderful opportunity to work with a dear friend of mine who had offered his assistance as my second shooter that day.  Needless to say it was a special experience.  The ceremony was set to be outside behind an ivy covered stone wall.  White folding chairs lined up on either sides of the burlap runner and tree branches trimmed the aisle.  It had so many possibilities…. until it began to rain!  This did not get the couple down or the guests,  They made things work inside and it was every bit as intimate and special as they would have hoped!  Lucky for us, the rain let up right when he ceremony ended and we were able to capture some really great moments outside.
