Eric & Thor Wedding

I think he's referring to a wedding with two grooms, vice what might be termed 'the more traditional' arrangement with a bride and groom.

Ahhh, one of those kind of weddings. With two human beings surrounded by family and friends, love and happiness in the air.

I was just thinking/wondering if we are uncomfortable saying gay wedding. Or if that is appropriate, or better yet, when we will just call it a wedding.

OP, nicely captured! Must be nice to have the opportunity to do more weddings because some of us have come to our senses.

Awesomesauce!

I just assumed he meant it was his first wedding period.

But maybe not. Idk.

I shot a lesbian wedding here in Lubbock (which is rated as the 2nd most conservative city in the US) last spring. It was really neat, mostly because one bride was like "whateva I don't even want a big wedding" and the other was all "everything much be perfect and...where's the damn limo!?" Haha

I believe that is called the "Reverse Paula Dean."

Thanks for all the comments. Yes 'one of these' referred to gay wedding. I think by trying to be more PC I may have went the opposite. The kind words on the images are appreciated.

Images are good but I don't get #16

As a gay man, I can tell you that trying to capture two guys in photos while still retaining their masculinity is quite a challenge. It can go very cheesy very quickly, trust me, I've had it happen to me. You really did well in these.

Nicely done!

Meh, I think cheese is what it's all about lol.

Just kidding...sort of...

I've never met a typical dude who isn't awkward taking lovey dovey photos. This is the reason why I do not take engagement photos or weddings hardly at all. I think certain situations are gonna be that way regardless, like the whole "guy kissing girl on the forehead" thing. I mean, where did that even come from. Every time I see it confuses me, because I thought that's what father's did when they tucked their daughters in at night.

I love #7! Whether it's their wedding day or not, it's a great capture of them just strolling with their critters. :thumbup: The pup on the right is almost frolicking - so cute!! I bet they keep that one close for years. Ties in nicely with the wedding cake, too. :lol:
