Something Blue

In all my years of photographing weddings I've never had a groom call me the morning of the wedding. Until yesterday when my groom and grade school pal, John Summers, calls to say he needs a favor. "Well of course" I say. So John goes on to tell me that he is on his way to the reception site and the site where his bride to be, Machelle, is getting dressed (The Inn at Harvest Farm Lake)for their big day. In hand he has a dozen red roses. Oh how sweet I think, but that's not all. He has the vase tied with a blue ribbon and tied to that is a box. That's right girls! A jewelry box. Inside that box is a sapphire ring to complete Mac's something blue for the day. Oh how sweet! So he wants it all captured on film. Or at least all on digital chip. No problem I say. Below is Mac's reaction and how she kept from ruining her makeup I'll never know. Congrats to you both.
