They like metal. No, not the kind that you wear on your finger in the form of an engagement ring, or that kind of metal at all, actually. I mean the music. Metal. As in head-banging, loudly screaming, guitar wailing metal. That was one of the first things Deanna told me about her and Tony when they first commissioned me to photograph their wedding. Now, I am not opposed to metal at all. Even slightly, actually. But I'm not sure if she meant like Metallica type of metal (which in my opinion is actually good music) or something like, um, Korn. Let's not go there ;-) But in the sentence that directly followed, "We like metal", she also said, "We need you to be really aggressive and take-charge because we're too laid back". I giggled because it seemed like those two statements just didn't belong together, but I assured Deanna if take-charge was what she was looking for, she came to the right place ;-) Deanna was actually referred to me by my long-lost best friend from elementary school (shout out to Kristin!) that had recently found me on Facebook. I was more than thrilled to hear from Kristin (Deanna's MOH) and just as thrilled to meet Deanna! So anyway, I met up with Deanna and her fiance, Tony, last weekend and we had pretty decent weather for this time of year. It was a little chilly, but Deanna was a trooper, and we got overcast skies which is great for photos! Deanna rocked all session and I even got Tony to warm up to me, too! Right, Tony? ;-)
Tony proposed on Christmas and handed Deanna this big, silver box. Inside of that box was the Santa box, and inside that box, the red box, and I think you get the point... Deanna wanted to make sure we got a picture of all of the boxes, which I thought was a great idea! :-)
Deanna, stay tuned for the rest to come soon! :-)
