Rachel & Anthony's Wedding @ Chesapeake Boat House
I'm feeling just a little bit spoiled today. After last weekend's awesome Seaside wedding, we had another cool venue for a local wedding: The Chesapeake Boat House! I've shot another event or two there, but they were evening events and so I didn't expect the really awesome natural lighting inside the main rooms and the changing rooms. The designers did a awesome job of using glass to use as much natural light inside as possible.
While the bride and bridesmaids were slipping into their dresses, I stole the bride's shoes for some fun shots. I've often heard people say you can judge a wedding by the bride's shoes and when I saw these beauties, I knew we were in for a great wedding. =)
I should also clarify, these are not OSU orange, but tangerine. Rachel is an OU grad and wanted to be sure it was not mistaken for orange. =)
Getting laced into her dress. The B&W was so simple and elegant!
Rachel & Anthony didn't want to see each other ahead of time, but they did want a fun shot of holding hands around a corner, so we found a cool spot to do that. =)
What a charmer!
I was totally loving this hand-made veil by Melody Ginn at Bird Cage Veils out of Red Oak, Texas.
The happy couple leaving the ceremony!
And a more artistic shot with the couple as the background. =)
They escaped to the boat house where I caught a few moments of pure delight. More than 1000 words are being spoken right here, I think. =)
A stolen moment outside of the boat house. I am still loving those shoes!
Then the clouds moved in for some amazing, dramatic colors.
The hours flew by and before we knew it, it was time for the big sendoff! I absolutely love sparklers for sendoffs because they make for dramatic pictures and they help light the bride & groom in a cool way.
Plus, after they leave, if there are any sparklers left, you can do fun things like write and draw with them! =)
Thanks to Brandi, Devin and Benj for being our artists in the image above. You guys do great work! I'm sure, for a fee, they can come to your wedding, and do this for you, too! =)

Wow! As always, these are great photos!! It makes them even more special since it's someone I know! They look great and I love the "non first look" ones!! Oh and the one where he is holding her! You captured them perfectly! I also think the boathouse should use one of your photos for their advertisements. Last time I checked their pictures didn't do it justice! haha
WONDERFUL job as always! it was great seeing you again!!!
INCREDIBLE WORK!!! LOVE your style! I'm an Oklahoma girl who had to move away!!! :( So I'm loving your blog and all your beautiful Oklahoma wedding images!!
Came across your blog...Love your photographs- What settings were you working with for the sparkler shot? It worked out great! Thanks for your time.
Hey, Jenna ~
I'm sure camera settings were pretty close to this...
200ISO
2 second exposure
~35mm lens @ f/2.8
Love these pictures and the inspiration behind them. Also I love these shoes what designer are they?
I can't believe how many people have inquired about Rachel's shoes! Okay, for those interested, here's the info from Rachel!
"I got them at DSW, and the brand/designer is Enzo Angiolini. I don’t know much else off the top of my head. I can look and see what the name of the shoe is when I get home, but that’s all I’ve got for now."
Hope that helps!! =)
