Ben and Kate - July 14, 2007



Click here to see Ben and Kate's Digital Italian Coffee Table Album! click on the shopping cart to see all the pictures once Ben and Kate have had a chance to view them all.

OK, here's a "small world" story if you ever heard one: Ben's family (The Babcocks) are from Chanute, Kansas (see blog for Craig and Tara's Wedding June 30). Unreal...

What a great wedding! When Ben and Kate first saw each other outside the church it was one of the most genuine first meetings I have had the pleasure to photograph. Except for the Pawn America sign in the background of course which I captured as well (on purpose). Regardless, Ben and Kate just radiated with adoration toward each other and lit up as soon as they were finally together on the wedding day.

The ceremony was great, even though Ben had microphone problems all day it seemed. :) We got a couple REALLY great shots of them walking out of the church under a shower of bubbles (see above).

Shady Thompson park yielded some really great wedding party shots on a gorgeous day; finally a summer wedding with great weather! The St. Paul Hotel was decorated beautifully and the bathrooms had some unique ice placement (right cousins at table 5?). This wedding wins the "Best Vows" award for the heartfelt, memorized, and 'not by the book' verses Kate and Ben spoke to each other - Uncle Roger, you got that on video, right?

Check back here in late July for their online album, I'm going on vacation for a few days! -Judd and Jessi
