at 2pm on the wedding day we arrived. it was just before josiah, the groom, walked up on his way back from the pool. karen drove off to go photograph the bride, and i followed josiah up to his room. after telling me a bit about his family with a forewarning that i wouldn't remember them all (little did he know i have five step-siblings and two half brothers) they all showed up. it was like a clown car hotel room. two sisters, a half sister, a step-sister, a brother, two mothers, a father, two best men, another friend, a boyfriend (justina's, not josiah's) and a traveling guitar.
and they were exceptional. josiah mentioned twice that i did more than just take pictures. "he'll talk to you too" he said. and it was totally to my benefit, because they were great. i'm not sure i've ever been in the company of such a tight-knit, loving and caring family and it was perhaps one of hte most inspiring evenings i've had in quite some time.
thank you again to kelly (the bride's sister) for hiring us to be a part of the wedding.
all my very best wishes to a newly united family and a blessed adventure for josiah and erin. and now for our favorite pics....

and here's the result:
