Charlsie and Ben - August 30, 2008


Click here to see Charlsie and Ben's wedding album! We turned this wedding around in 5 days again - maybe you guys can see it from Cabo!
What a simple and elegant wedding; 4 months of planning, everything at the White Bear Yacht Club, and great weather gave us the chance to grab some great creative images. Chad got the main picture above by lying on the ground; the shot on the middle right of Charlsie's ring needs a "bling" sound effect when you look at it. To look at her ring directly, I had to make one of those "pinhole" sheets of paper you made in grade school for looking at solar eclipses. :)
Ben is a huge Fletch fan so the bottom shot is a tribute to the "Stanwyk shot" when he is super pumped and his bride is clearly not - good sport Charlsie! Dilly Bars for dessert topped the whole thing off, but my favorite moment was brother John's toast when he revealed that Ben and Charlsie were making a gingerbread house one evening and he and other brother Nate were taking bets on if they were going to put a heart and their initials on one of the gables. A direct quote from Ben: "The odds makers took a beating when I landed Charlsie!" Great stuff. -Judd and Chad
