Rios and Ruth

Albert is his real name, but in college he went by Rios. Rios has been a good friend for about 4 years and has done everything from eating spoonfuls of pepper to almost finishing The Matrix game in one sitting. Ruth... well, she is a little bit quieter. A lot of fun, but still much quieter. They started to date when I was living with Rios in college and got a chance to briefly meet her and got to know her a little, but by the way Rios raved about her, I was pretty sure that she was the right girl for him. I moved away and hadn't talked to him for a while when I got a call from him. I knew he had been engaged to Ruth but hadn't talked to him since then. He asked if I could shoot his wedding and I was excited to do that for him. I went up to Minneapolis (an amazing city... love it) for the weekend and shot the wedding with my friend Cooper. Here are a few shots of the very affectionate wedding.

p.s. it is a long post....

These two girls were so much fun... mention Hanna Montana and they got huge smiles.

Rios wanted to do an "Abby Road" photo with his 8 grooms men...

I rented a fish eye lens for the wedding and had a lot of fun with it.

We had some fantastic light in the evening
