Lisel & James 1-17-10

post written on 03 Feb 10 in Portraits, Weddings

I thought I would let our bride Lisel & James have the honors to write in their own words.
Our wedding weekend was much more of a big good-bye party than anything else. And that’s just what we wanted. Neither of us are much good at staying in the same place for very long. Inevitably, we’re off again. This time we’ve applied to the Peace Corps and hope to be stationed in West Africa for 2-plus years. Our ‘honeymoon’ will be traveling for as long and as far as we can before the Peace Corps. We’ll start in Spain with the Camino de Santiago, a centuries-old pilgrimage that takes us walking across Spain, this will be for 5 weeks, and then head over to India, Nepal, Bhutan, Japan and New Zealand. With that said, these past few months were our last stable moments States-side. We have a beautiful array of family and friends all over the world and it was important for us to get everyone together for a formal au revoir. It may be years before we see most of them again.
Photography was key and shooting with Carlos was one of the highlights of the weekend. His creativity and energy brought out the best in the group and we’re looking forward to many moments captured of everyone we love in their element. Catalina also did an amazing job capturing James and the event as well. After the party’s over, all we’ve got are the memories and the photos.
Bon Voyage,
Lisel & James
