Kerry Scott and Jon Boese

 decided to get hitched..

And here's what my camera caught.  I shot a lot of no flash pics because i thought i was running out of battery. 

If i didn't get a pic of you, oops sorry.  perhaps next time.    Click on the small pic to see it full size.

Be sure to check out the rest of my grandfather's website.   some fun stuff  here : Ray Young.

The boat house [with flash]

Kelly - jon's best friend in high school

Leon from Amsterdam

Janet and Tammy.

Jon- I swear he isnt a pin head. its just that the camera was held to low and he was leaning back.

slightly better. I don't feel bad about boogering some of these shots as the professional photogs will have taken similar but far better ones.

Joe. this is about as good as he gets. didn't want to beat him senseless all weekend. Good on-ya joe.

Rune - lookin sharp.

Nils - very sharp. too bad I couldn't hold the camera steady.

don't know why so many katy shots. proximity i guess.

An unsung hero of the wedding. hope all your photos turned out better than mine.

and one more. i think his name was chris. his wife was shooting too.

no flash, so only focus would be people holding still. Rune, Chris Silker, and the back of my brother Steve's head.

tough shots to get. the pro's will have the good ones. i just held the camera over my head and hoped it caught something.

grooms people

brides people.

There... all done. didn't hurt a bit.

Now to eat a little more cake and drink a few more beers and the night is over.

A meeting with the 'Don'

and the night is winding down. [ to be wound back up again in the hospitality room.]
