Mandy & Joe - Wedding Photos

These are the photos from the wedding of Joe & Mandy Malanowski.

Mandy is my wonderful first bride!  The first lady to entrust me with capturing her wedding day in photos.  I know her through my long-time friend Kelly, who was the maid-of-honor in the wedding.

Mandy approached me a while back and asked me to shoot her wedding.  I was definitely nervous to accept, since it would be my first time as the primary shooter at a wedding.  But Mandy was the perfect first bride!  She was so sweet about everything, and probably had more confidence in me than I had in myself!  I'm so grateful to her for having the faith in me to give me my first shot.

Hope you enjoy the photos!  I also included a few great perspective shots from my awesome second shooter, Lauren Lotinsky.  Look for the "LL"!

All of her shoe options for the day!  Can a girl have too many?? ;)

Ready!

Ready? :)

They actually had these sun rays painted on the wall!  They ended up right behind their heads in a number of shots.  I think it was appropriate for this one :)

Despite a super-chilly day, lots of rain & summer-style dresses, I think we came out with some great portraits.  Thanks for sticking with me ladies!

Parents of the bride

Love this one of maid-of-honor Kelly and her boyfriend Matt.  They're so photogenic!  Every photo they were in turned out amazing.

We sneaked out of the reception to grab a few more portraits!

Love this shot from Lauren!  You can tell she works in architecture.
