This was the last wedding I will shoot until May and what a way to end the season - the 43rd wedding in 31 weekends and we get a major snowstorm and crazy slippery roads on the way down to Red Wing! The day started out at this cool bed and breakfast where the women were getting ready - totally decked out for the holidays with gigantic snowflakes falling outside the windows. After my brain caught up with Chelsey's ultra-fast rate of speech, I was able to get some really cool shots in front of the window including my favorite shoe shot I have ever taken (below). We had to grab umbrellas for the bridesmaids for the snow shots since the snowflakes were so big and wet - the reason you only see one umbrella is because Chelsey broke the first two she tried to open! :) Groom Jesse (aka the American Assassin ultimate fighter) and Chelsey didn't see each other before the ceremony so we got out of the limo and pretty much walked right down the aisle in this small country church in the middle of nowhere. There was this crazy looking wolf-dog that almost attacked video guy Joe. I love the regal look of military weddings, the saber arch, the discipline, etc. Jesse got word a few weeks ago that he is being deployed for a year to Iraq Jan 9 (5 days after they get back from their honeymoon). We shot two weddings of Army officers in the Red Bull company that were deployed for 22 months and came back last summer; Jesse we'll see you when you get back and thanks for your service to our country. We are turning around these photos in a record 2 days so you two can enjoy it together for a few days! -Judd, Amanda, Joe, and Kristina
