So, the first wedding I shot this year wasn't technically a wedding, but a reception for a wedding that took place in South Africa a few weeks before.  I'd only met the bride once before at a dinner out with some friends.  I didn't meet the groom until the night of the party.  That night, though they made it feel like we'd been long time friends.  They were one of the most laid back and fun couples I've photographed.  And, as a bonus they have a French Bulldog named Monty that happens to be pals wtih my own Frenchie, Butterball. (I'm sure both of them will make it into a post one of these days.)

The pictures will show you, without me having to say it, but I will anyway; awesome couple, awesome night, awesome start to wedding season this year.
