What a Scorcher!
We were really happy to shoot the wedding of Nikki & Travis the other week. Nikki & Travis are both in active service in the Air Force so they flew in to NC from their base in Nebraska. The wedding was at the outdoor space at the Doubletree Hotel in Durham. If you've never been outside the back of this hotel, it is a beautiful setting across the lake. Nikki & Travis tried to beat the heat of July by having the ceremony early at 10.30am. However the weather just wasn't co-operating for them and it was probably already in the 90's by the time the ceremony started.
We'd arrived early at the hotel at 8.00am to photograph the preparations, probably the earliest start we have ever made at a wedding. We got some great shots of the girls and then went on to shoot travis and his groomsmen.
The ceremony was a hot one but we got some great shots of the service and afterwards we took the happy couple and their bridal party for a stroll down the lakeside to capture some fun and romantic images of them.
After this short interlude we went back to the hotel where the reception took place in the hotel's large tent. Everyone had lot's of fun as they danced away to the "Boomerang" band.
Here are just a few images from the day......
