Welcome back! Things are moving along and I'm ticking stuff off my to-do list at a good pace. Up next is the second half of the continuation of the CrazyMay teaser post featuring Curt and Dawn's wedding. They had a beautiful day at Curt's family home in Walland. I'm going to try not to sound too much like an excited kid here, but it... was... AWESOME! Drums, Vans, tools, motorcycles, a classic Mustang, Jones Soda, a boat, walkie-talkies, Bigfoot, Lightsabers, beautiful girls, and parasols! Okay, maybe parasols is taking it a bit far for the over-excited kid angle, but come on, the rest of that stuff rocks! :)
We knew we were going to fit right in at Curt and Dawn's wedding when Curt first called us; "We have to have the dude in the dress shoot our wedding!" (If you have no idea what I'm talking about, first where have you been? And second, check out our
information page). Not so much because he and I have a propensity for fat guys in dresses, but because we all love to have fun. And fun was certainly had at their wedding.
Check out some of our favorites...
Curt taking a friends bike for a quick spin before getting ready.
"Off The Wall"
Look at Dawn's expression. Then look at what the bridesmaid on the right is holding. What the deuce is going on?!?
Groomsman attack!
I have to give props to our buddy Lisa Foster for a beautiful, simple bouquet.
Dawn looking radiant in a sea of parasols.
Studly.
How cool is this? Curt and Dawn had some personalized Jones Soda bottles for the reception.
There were all sorts of cool spots to do ring shots.
Score another one for Beth (SuperAssistant). She's been having fun with reflections lately.
A shared laugh during the ceremony.
Sneaking a kiss after they tied the knot.
A little note from Curt to Dawn.
Awww...
I don't ask questions folks, I just photograph what they ask me to photograph.
Aren't they cute?
A little sunflare love.
Curt and Dawn are fans of the funkiness. So I played a lot in post production.
Danielle hung out across the pond to get some scenic photos.
A little bridge cuddling.
Here's the backstory: Curt thought it would be cool if he and Dawn hopped out on a little island in the stream for a few quick photos. Of course I thought it was a great idea. But we there was the issue of them getting to the island. There was talk of a paddleboat (I don't know about that), but Curt thought a ladder-bridge would work. Someone produced a ladder (not something that we normally keep in our camera bag) and the ever so wise Dawn quickly said, "Um. I don't think so." They did test it out though, but this is as far as Curt got. Island or no island, they're still some fun photos.
"Sittin' on the dock of the bay..." 
I've warned you, I'm a car nut.
Curt takes an unconventional approach to cutting the cake, kung-fu style.
Big sky country.
Love in a lawn chair.
First dance.
In the teaser, I showed you a photo of the elusive Big foot. Here, Curt chases him down on foot. Not so much as to scare him away from the ceremony, but I think to get a hug from the furry guy. He never caught up to him though. :(There you go! Curt and Dawn, thanks so much!!
That's it from me for a few days. I may be all proud about getting a couple things knocked off my to-do list, but that doesn't mean I'm caught up. Diving back into the photo mines in the morning. Have a great rest of the week everyone!
