When a couple walks into your studio and tells you about their day that includes Fire Trucks… What are you supposed to do. I wanted to grovel and beg, but they didn’t let me. My firefighter background helped me on this one. This incredible couple was married in Fowler Michigan of all places. Helping me photograph this event were my two interns from the Summer. The ceremony was a beautiful catholic mass. I had plenty of time to relax and concentrate on capturing the heart of this couple.
then it was on to the downtown bar, a great watering hole for a bridal party that needed to be watered down. From dancing on the Pool table to rocking out to 80’s music I knew we were in for a action packed day. The party loaded a bus from Affordable Limousine out of Grand Rapids and headed to Looking Glass Fire Department. By this time most of the adult beverage consumption was in full force and the groomsmen had totally let their guard down. Carefully we added the axes and turnout gear to make many unique wedding portraits that the couple will love.
Being I dreamed of a wedding like this since the day they asked about the Fire Truck, I was ready and willing to be as creative as the couple allowed. Even throwing the Bride over the Grooms shoulder wasn’t too much to ask.
After about an hour of fun, the bridal party continued on to the Dewitt Conference and Banquet center. It was host to 300 of the couples family and friends. The foood was filling, and the dancing wild. A great time was had by all.
