Here is the cover from the wedding I shot Saturday. Like I said, it was so much fun. The wedding was at Timberline, but not in the main lodge, it was in the Silcox Hut, about halfway up the mountain. The only way to get there is by snow-cat. Yes, snow-cat. Everybody was transported up and down the hill in a giant snow-cat. That in itself was fun. The weather could have been better, it was white out conditions, wind at like 70MPH and 8 inches of snow fell during the day. But they were still willing to go outside and brave the elements for a cool photo here and there. One of my favorite photos is of the bride and groom getting off of the snow cat and being dragged by the driver through the wind and snow, while I am trying to take a photo in the same wind, it was tough! But so fun! Some highlights included an indoor snowball fight, which got even better when the grooms friends went outside and got a shovel full of snow then proceeded to dump it on the newlyweds heads....another hilarious moment of the night came when all of their friends came up to me and said they wanted to take a "secret" photo. So we went outside (in the winds and blizzard) and everyone stood downwind in the snow let the full moon show....
I couldn't stop laughing. THAT is something I have definitely NEVER seen at a wedding and I'm pretty sure I never will again. All in all it was a great time with great people, it felt like I was hanging out with my friends all night instead of working and THAT is why I LOVE doing what I do.

Craig, You said it all in your missive about why weddings are so much fun to shoot, and the moon shot is way too funny. Good job under tough conditions.
