Sharise and Jim

Our daughter, Sharise, married her dream-guy in our backyard on Saturday.  It was a beautiful ceremony.  The barbershop quartet that I’m a member of (The Three Good Looking Guys) sang “Little Girl” during the ceremony.  It was a tear jerker for sure! 

Her father, Mike, and I (step-dad) walked her down the aisle.  We realized at that point that we should have made the aisle a little bigger when we set up the chairs.  We got to the front and proceeded to kiss her cheeks…and then we were “coached” in the necessity to lift her veil first…so we tried again.   Jeeez, you’d think that after attending literally hundreds of weddings as a photographer, I’d have figured this out by now. 

Another funny observation…photographer’s families are the worst photographic subjects.  I am always very clear with a prospective bride that everyone needs to be on time in order to get all the pictures taken in a minimal amount of time.  Yep, you guessed it.  I think we were close to an hour late…and we didn’t get all the pictures we wanted because of it.  But, we still had a blast and got some great shots.
