A couple of weeks ago, my friend asked if I would mind going to Arkansas to take a few pictures of her+fiancé. They had decided to get married at the courthouse and wanted me to help the document the occasion. I was thrilled, as this friend is particularly special. She was my student teacher, and we had an amazing bond. She is super creative and fun and she is just the best.
When we arrived at the Tanyard Creek Trail parking area, Shaina hopped out of the car in a white dress. I quickly realized that THIS was the wedding. More people arrived, dressed up and looking fancy. I had worn galoshes and my hair in a pony tail, fearing rain. I was certainly not dressed for a wedding. But luckily, I was the photographer so nobody cared what I was wearing. We hiked up to a waterfall and the happy couple said their vows. They exchanged rings and had a kiss and that was it. Their 'real' wedding will be later this year, in Scotland, but they decided to make it official now, to make the paperwork easier and so that Andy can adopt her daughter before they go. I managed to catch Keyanna in the act of sticking out her tongue at Poppy during the nuptials. Isn't she a doll!? Took photos of them around the trail, and then we hiked back down and they signed the marriage license, making it official. For lunch, we all went to Tokyo House. We had sushi and Chinese buffet food. It was delicious and we were all starving after the hike. It was a beautiful day and I was happy to capture the photos for my friend.
