I met BriAnne Powell about 5 years ago when her she was a bridesmaid in her brother Josh’s wedding.  When she called to say she was engaged and she wanted me to photograph her wedding, I was thrilled.  The Powell family is one of the nicest group of people you will ever meet.  Gracious, loving, and very spiritual, this tight knit family was so excited to see BriAnne marry a man who shares those same wonderful qualities.  When I met Cameron and his family, I could see right away that they all fit together perfectly.

 

  

 

It helps make the wedding ceremony extra special when the person who performs it really knows the bride and groom well.  It adds that personal touch and makes a tremendous difference in the message.  So when Josh married BriAnne and Cameron, it was really special.  It was as if there were 200 people witnessing a personal conversation between friends about their commitment to each other, their marriage and to God.

 

It is a tradition that goes back generations in the Powell family that when the father of the bride walks his little girl down the aisle, he holds this family bible in one hand.  The bible is used during the wedding ceremony and then the groom brings it back down the aisle with his new wife.  I love Cameron’s expression of pride and BriAnne’s giddy smile right after they were pronounced Mr. and Mrs. Cameron Damskov.
