It is hard to believe that nearly a full year has gone by since Parker & Kelly’s engagement session, my gosh time flies! I would bet that it felt like an eternity to Parker & Kelly because they were SO excited to be married. Well the time finally came on May 15th, 2010 and the wedding was nothing less than spectacular. So much thought, passion and energy went into the planning of their big event and it definitely showed. I have been waiting oh so patiently (or impatiently 🙂 ) to post Kelly’s bridal photos. She looked absolutely gorgeous in her dress and the bridal session was so much fun. I will post her photos in a blog entry just after this one.

When we arrived at the Hyatt downtown mouths dropped and there were even a few gasps. The decor in the ballroom was elegant, fashionable, colorful, full of detail and just pure eye candy! After the wedding party was announced, the first dance was enjoyed, food was savored and the cake was cut…it was time to dance. And dance they did! Friends and family were all having so much fun that I couldn’t help but smile throughout the night.

Thank you Parker & Kelly for allowing me to be a part of this last year with you, all the way from the engagement shoot, bridal session and then the wedding. The love between you two is a beautiful thing to see, all the best to you both.

In my previous post I shared a handful of images and a slideshow of Brian & Jane’s wedding day in New Orleans. The rehearsal dinner is a very important part of the weekend and the images captured of that day help to tell the story of Brian & Jane’s wedding. I checked into the Royal Sonesta Hotel, looked around a bit and then met everyone in the lobby. We walked a few blocks to Jackson Square where the ceremony took place. It was great seeing all the different buildings and feeling the history of the French Quarter. As you enter Jackson Square, the Andrew Jackson statue dominates the middle of the park with the St. Louis Cathedral as the backdrop…really amazing. From there everyone made their way to NOLA; a restaurant that Chef Emeril Lagasse opened in the French Quarter in 1992. After taking several photos and getting the slideshow up and ready to view, we sat down to enjoy an amazing dinner with everyone. Thank you again Kenny Kim for working with me on this incredible wedding!
