Well, its been quite some time since my last post. After a busy fall followed up by a wedding shoot I'm finally back. If you haven't noticed, I've finally made a change in that I've found a more permanent "home" for my blog. No longer does it reside at an unmemorable blogger address, I now have it resting at benelyphoto.com. A small change, but non the less, a big step.
With that being said, the last month I've been busy at editing the photos for the wedding that I shot just before Christmas. The new husband and wife are Phil and Beth Jackson. Both have been family friends for the last several years and are an extremely fun and nice couple. The wedding was held at the Tempe Mission Palms Hotel, which turned out being a very nice venue.
Weddings are definitely a strange beast to photograph. There is only so much planning that can be done, after that, its a whirlwind until the nights all over. The nice thing was that I was able to move around several areas of the hotel for both the ceremony and portraits. With my wife Samantha helping during the ceremony, we were able to get several shots not just from ground level but also from a balcony over looking the courtyard. Now at the end of it all, I have to say that I am happy how the photos came out.
