Scott and Yvonne Norman - A deck wedding
GREAT WEATHER, GREAT WEDDING on a deck
So this is really strange. But throughout my eight years in the wedding industry. I have never...ever attended, planned, or photographed a wedding that took place on the deck or patio of a beach house. Isn't that strange? We'll..this was my first. Unfortunately, I forgot to scan a picture of the deck, but it was a really really nice one. You had to watch your step and to make sure you didn't drag your feet or else you would get splinters...but other than that, it was perfect.
The other really strange thing about this wedding is that it took place on the same beach where I shoot a lot of weddings! And I didn't know it! See, I plan a lot of weddings at Kawela Bay, or what I like to call it, Secret Cove at Turtle Bay. I always wondered what it would be like to photograph a wedding at the houses on the very left of Kawela Bay, and guess what...I got my opportunity!
The entire family and Scott and Yvonne were great; warm, cheerful, laid-back, everything one could ask for. This wedding was a rather rush job though as we did get the call to perform his wedding about a week out. The wedding was very "cute." Yvonne, was escorted to the alter by her two sons while her family sang "Here comes the bride." The ceremony though was very very romatic with tears coming from both Scott and Yvonne. I'm happy we could piece everything together for them.
Scott and Yvonne are both from Florida. Scott probably has the coolest job a guy could get. He drives a backhoe and breaks things up for a living. And I thought I had a cool job. Lets hope that Scott's construction friends don't read this and tease him for crying at his wedding. I'll just end this blog on one note. The fact is, at most of my weddings, the men cry more often than the women.....

I was at this wedding as the "step-father" of the groom, and it was one of the most relaxed affairs I've ever been to... the photographers were great, as was the Hawaiian minister who did a superb job. We all got a copy of the wedding on CD and you guys did an awesome job with that too. Oh, I guess I'd better tell you the groom emphatically denies shedding any tears-- real men don't cry and all that... now the bride, that's another story! Take care guys and Mahalo!
