Missoula Wedding Photographer ~ Shelby & Shawn: Married

I feel like I've spent a lot of time apologizing on my blog lately, so I'm not going to do it again. Honestly, I'm not sorry! Not only did I get married two weeks ago {yay!}, but as the summer has progressed and I've booked more clientele, I'm getting a better feel for my workflow, my turn-around times, and am streamlining my editing process to have an A, B, and C. If you know me at all, creating that "A, B and C" process is extremely important to my mental well-being as I'm slightly OCD. Well, I'm Type A. 'Nuff said.

Getting down to the nitty gritty ... Shelby & Shawn were married July 10th {I know, two months ago - eek!} on a mostly gorgeous day at Linda Vista Country Club in Missoula, Montana. Yes, mostly gorgeous. The day dawned bright & blue, families were a-workin' for the B&G at the venue, the gals were getting gussied up at the local mall, and those classic Montana thunderclouds were floating above the Bitterroot Mountains like unwanted hangers-on at a party.

Mid-afternoon, the thunderclouds were no longer hangers-on, they were major party crashers. The skies opened up and they unleashed their fury, monsoon-style. Wait, we're not in Arizona! But they did. I know a lot of regions use the phrase "if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes" but in Montana, nothing could be more true. Within fifteen minutes we were no longer under the pouring bucket and instead back to sunshiney skies.

To Shelby & Shawn: I hope every day of your lives together is like this day. I do not wish you raining fury, but I do hope you maintain the positive attitudes, smiles & laughter you both exuded despite the "interruption." Cheers!

PS ... I'm coining "sunshiney." Consider it copyrighted as of September 15th, 2010. :)

And because I'm a total sucker for cute babies ...

Cheers!
