Heather & Matt // 05.02.09 //
I have absolutely loved working with Heather and Matt and their family. We did an amazing eng shoot in the streets of Tulsa, then one of my all time favorite bridal shoots with Heather.
Then on their wedding day, although I knew it was going to be an perfectly planned event, I was racking my brain for some ideas of what to shoot in the rain since it looked inevitable that it would not only rain but POUR and it was looking like about 50 degrees. Fortunately I didn't have to use my awesome idea I planned for the rain (it is ready should I need it this summer)
Anyway, Heather and Matt are such an inspiring fit! During all the 9000 photos I have of them (wow!) I have seen nothing but compatibility in them. I had such a great time at their wedding..It was an awesome kick off to wedding season.
Thanks so much Heather, Matt, Stacey and Steve. And many congratulations!
Below are my favorites:

A beautiful "First Look" Moment. I loved that they took their time and totally soaked in the moment. I won't show you the ones where Matt cried. Oops! Sorry Matt. It was really emotional
I dropped my camera and look what happened...:)
If you are this studly, you can get away with a couple tears. Whose going to say anything?

They had to move the ceremony from a plan of having it on the front lawn overlooking the lake to this covered veranda. They had such an awesome attitude and did amazingly well transforming this area into a cozy little place for the hundreds of guests to sit under roof and with heaters! Way to go Steve!!!
Another shot (above) by my second shooter for the day, Kelly Kurt Brown. I LOVE this photo!!
Yeah, there's not one single thing even close to in focus on this one. Cool isn't it?!?!
I always try to capture a night shot of the venue after all is said and done and eaten etc. I deserve extra credit for this one. I put my Nikon D3 to the test and shot this in the rain. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the water drops on the lens in the photo. Perfect ending to a day that rained on and off all day.

Great stuff. I love the lighting, and the lens flares.
dude, you wore out my scroll wheel on that one! Most excellent wedding though, high five Todd!
Todd! These are amazing. I am so glad you were there to capture the "funness" of the night because it all went by so quickly for us! I knew when I saw your website that you were the photog for us and you did an amazing job. We can't thank you enough!
These are AWESOME Todd!!!!!!! Where were you when I got married??
