Michael+Christina Wedding

My burning hot couple from a few weeks ago got married! The celebration took place in a very small town in a small country church just a little while ago. The occasion was celebratory and joyous with big family, big laughs, and big hearts all around!

The weather was slightly overcast and miserably hot — stifling even. Everyone trooped around outside for photos and a few unique opportunities arose…trains, planes and automobiles…without the planes part. The church sat a few hundred feet from the busy train tracks of Strasburg. We crossed them for the boys’ photos. When we did, we saw this rocking car rumble by…we flagged him down and borrowed the restored black ‘69 Camaro for our shots! Too fun! Later, we flagged an oncoming train down. Okay, we didn’t flag it down, but it did stop not too far from us while we were shooting the couple’s photos and then started up again and we got to watch it leave. Awesome!

Michael & Christina, I look forward to seeing you guys again soon for your proofs, but in the mean time, here are some fun teasers!

    Wow great stuff! I really like the last one, standing on the rail road tracks with the aged effect. Nice!

  2. Dennis

    That first car shot could be some sort of movie poster. Excellent work!

  3. Michael Gowin

    Outstanding Dustin! Great PP too.

  4. Luke

    Amazing work man! I love your post processing!

  5. Kathy Carlisle

    Well, it’s not very often that the groomsmen pictures outshine the rest of the pics, but in this case….they rocked! I love the three of them and I bet your clients are going to be very pleased. Oh and I LOVE the moment you captures with the peeking around the corner, her face just says it all. Beautifully done, keep up the great work. Kathy
