Alright the weekend was amazing, Allison and her now HUSBAND Rich treated us amazingly well as did their family and friends and everyone else that was there.

The weather however did not listen to all of us when we wanted to have an outside wedding and outside photo shoots and outside everything else. So plans had to be changed, tents put up, our photo shoots changed and locations which we wanted to capture simply could not be done.

On Sunday the day after their wedding the four of us (Allison, Rich, Cody and myself) went down to Savannah's Rail Road Museum (http://www.chsgeorgia.org/roundhouse/home.htm) for a little fun and old metal and dirt and brick and grunge and whatever else you want to call it.

So with all the said, us TriCoast boys shot half the day - traveled the other half, drove over an hour home, then I processed a few images (nothing special) just to show Allison BEFORE she was headed down to Mexico for her Honeymoon. Since I showed them to her she has given me permission to show them to you!

So today, since I leave for Alabama (8 hour drive) tomorrow through Thursday, I am working my best to get some of the wedding actually completed now that I am home on my desktop. As soon as Allison sees the images I will post them here. With all that said, here are the first images of Allison and Rich on their wedding day or Day After Session with a TON MORE coming your way soon, remember Grunge was the theme for many of these images and since I TRULY HATE THE TERM " Trash the Dress" to me this was just another session which happened to get the dress dirty.

#1 - Inside an old railroad street car, which we were not supposed to be in but hey it was pouring outside so we made adjustments

#2 - Our stunning bride Allison. An IR Portrait of her just before her big day inside the "Getting ready house"

#3 - In front of one of the trains at the Museum. The couple was giving us their best "Chooo choooo" and screaming it in the process

#4 - Another one on the back pouch of the house as #2. Again just playing with colors, textures and processing styles at this point.

#5 - Inside the old street car again using wireless flash this time

#7 - Allison has not seen these images yet

OK OK OK so you can not see how stunning she is, but the fountain is pretty dang cool ain't it (say it in your best Southern U.S. Texan Draw please)! Here is one of the couple with a stress on the beautiful bride! (oh and I know there is something funky going on with the pole behind Allison's face, I did not do that in Photoshop it seems the pole was like that and I did not notice until getting home. I will touch it up later)

SO MANY AMAZING IMAGES from the wedding day I simply have not even uploaded them all to Lightroom yet, much less processed them. I do have them all organized I just need to get into Lightroom and color correct them all, then I will get some new stuff up that is more traditional and straight forward and which shows how STUNNING Allison was as a bride. We kept reminding Rich how he married WAY UP all weekend long and he kept reminding us he was well aware of that fact

Enjoy and thanks for looking! Next batch from the wedding will be the more traditional side of things (bride getting ready, groom getting ready, wedding, reception, details, etc.)

Like the idea of #7, but I think the bride is a little too OOF. Others look great.
