Made Possible By...

The FOX 59 Dream Wedding was only made possible by the passion and dedication of many people involved in this production, and trust me, it was a production! First, kudos to FOX 59 for making this all happen and thanks for allowing ME to be a part of it! The day went smoothly thanks to the structure and patience of Crista Tharp, wedding planner extraordinaire. The Ritz Charles, in Carmel, is a beautiful place and I love the simplicity of the Chapel they have right in front of their glassed Garden Pavilion. A Classic Party Rentals had everything looking sharp. J.P. Parker Flowers had some beautiful arrangements and her bouquet helped create one of my new favorite shots! Zsarenet's beautiful dress was provided by Sophia's, as well as Ja'Rell's tux, but it was 'Butter' (their son) that stole the show in his mini-tux! Salon 01 gave Zsarenet the finishing touches with her hair and makeup. And of course... the ring... provided by Moyer Fine Jewelers in Indianapolis. The pictures speak for the ring itself!

This slideshow below sorta gives a shout out to the sponsors by putting a twist on Zsarenet and Ja'Rell's show. There are a few additional pics that haven't been seen yet. Again, I'm grateful to have been a part of such a unique experience.

Zsarenet & Ja'Rell

So it was obvious in the engagement shots how relaxed and fun Zsarenet and Ja’Rell are, but my expectations were not the same for a wedding live on television. As you can see here, they were unshaken by the cameras and interviews. It was clear that despite the additional pressures of this wedding day that they are in love and ready to start this new, exciting phase in their relationship. What a unique experience to work around the true production of a wedding yet to really be able to see their focus on one another!

More Great Shots!

Okay, I know many of you are anxious to see their slideshow, but there are so many great photos of them that I had to post a few more. I'll post the slideshow next, so be sure to check back!

One of my new favs!

FOX 59 DREAM WEDDING

So the day finally came! Zsarenet and Ja'Rell were absolutely stunning and we had a blast! I had a slideshow of pictures going during the reception so everyone could get a glimpse of their morning. I love doing this cause it allows the guest AND bride/groom to get a peak at the story of the couple's wedding day. I'm posting a few of them here, but stay tuned for their slideshow of the whole day.

Keep checking back for the slideshow!

Zsarenet & Ja'Rell - FOX 59 Wedding Contest Winners

What a blast! Spend an afternoon with Zsarenet & Ja’Rell and it is easy to see why this couple is deserving of a FOX Wedding Giveaway. Engagement shoots are great because I get to know the couple without all the nerves of a wedding, for example, Ja’Rell’s nickname is “Peanut” so of course, little Ja’Rell is “Butter”. Butter easily steals the picture and has a great connection with each of his parents (obvious in his delight while being tossed high enough to rival the skyline). I look forward to capturing the day of a couple so overtly in love, committed, and excited to celebrate their lives together. Stay tuned to see Butter debut his first tux!

Till then, enjoy some of my favorite pics below and check out the slideshow for the rest!
