Sanna & Adie

Oh where to start? How does one even try to explain what it is to have a wedding “Sanna and Adie style”? Impossible! No colorful words or fancy adjectives will do it justice and it certainly won’t put you right there, in the scrambling crowd, when the groom discharges a fire extinguisher at the hecklers during his speech. Hellz yeah folks, these two throw a mean party… Complete with choreographed (I use that term somewhat loosely! hehe) dancing that would bring a tear to Paula Abdul’s eyes! One thing I’m pretty sure of is that none of the guests are likely to forget this one anytime soon — I know I wont!

So you think you can dance?

Purely from a photography point of view I have to say what a pleasure — a joy, even — it was shooting this wedding… this was in no small part thanks to two beautiful people who gave me absolute free reign — a thought that those who know me quite well might summarily dismiss as “crazy talk”, much in the way most sane people would do with the thought of hunting elephant in thick bush with a BB-gun. But Sanna and Adie constantly reminded me of how much confidence they had in me, my ability and my personal style and how they just KNEW the photos would be great. Its great to hear and immensely empowering… although I guess a smarter person than myself, if such a person were to stop just long enough to think about it for a bit, might have come to the conclusion that they were under a massive amount of pressure to deliver! Strangely enough, it actually had quite the opposite effect. Chilled like a mouse!
I have also since decided that I need a little place in Elgin to call my own! That next morning me and The_Girlfriend awoke to the not entirely soothing sounds of a cock… coookadoodleFREAKINGdooo, and what not… (and yes, there are quite possibly some less than savory jokes in there somewhere, but I’m going to let that slide.. and SIESA, you should be ashamed of yourselves just for thinking it! potty mouths!) but once I got over the urge to shoot something and an inexplicable craving for roast chicken, I was totally sold on the idea of having a little place in the countryside. Outside our bedroom window were forests and mountains and rivers and horses and, well, noisy chickens — they would have to go, of course! But the pure serenity of it all practically slapped me in the face and the thought of having my very own horse, and maybe a cow, practically had me hoofing it down to the nearest 7eleven for a lotto ticket. I get all choked up just thinking about it.
So while I work my way through the Elgin section in the Property Trader, you can kick back and check out the pics from Sanna and Adie monster bash, held at Rockhaven in Elgin! Brilliant venue btw… what a stunner!
