Shelby and Trent: The Wedding

I learned a lot from this wedding. I learned that sometimes strong conviction, fierce determination, unrelenting love, and unwavering devotion comes in tiny blue eyed, blonde haired packages like Shelby. And I learned that sometimes the softest of hearts and the warmest of genuine tears come from giant men like Trent. I have heard via the grapevine through the years of Shelby's ability to stand up for anyone who has been left out or threatened. I watched as she uncomfortably took the spotlight and accommodated the attention hesitantly....  all the while not seeming to be aware of the fact that pretty much no person on planet earth could have outshone her beauty on her wedding day. Then I saw Trent sob... yes... literally gasp back tears as he not only watched his bride approach him... but even as his friends and little brothers entered the isle!!! I witnessed both she and Trent, whose appearance could have warranted feeling a little elevated than the rest of us... be very humble. Very grateful. Very unaware of anybody's eyes but each others. And I have enormous respect and admiration for both of them. And I wish them nothing but a blessed and happy existence. God Bless you guys! Here are my favorites of getting ready and wedding pics and we'll post the formal photos tomorrow including some by very talented second photographer for the day Caitlin Buchanan. You totally made my day! :)
