Last Friday we broke down and made a few more major decisions for the wedding.  Dusty picked out his groomsmen so you can now check out our wedding party.  I made it a little difficult for him by having five bridesmaids.  He said if I picked any more girls that he might just have to start meeting new guys now so that he could have enough groomsmen and ushers in the wedding. I’ve spend the last two weeks calling and meeting with different services around Omaha.  It’s a never ending job and I could have called photographers, caterers, and florists for weeks to come but we finally decided to just choose from what we had and be done with it.  Knowing I was going to be in Toronto for a week and how fast things book up, really helped push us to making some decisions. Photographer.

Dusty and I only had a few requests from our photographer.  Dusty wanted to have access to the digital files so he could post them on his website.  I wanted the photographer to put together an album for us and touch up pictures or add special effects if they needed it.  For example, cropping the picture, change pictures to black and white, make the background blurry, and have only part of the picture be colored while the other parts are black and white.  Of course, we just really wanted great photographs from someone who took a variety of photos.  We finally decided to go with Douglas Gunder photography. I met with him last week and he was very familiar with the Scottish Rite Masonic Center and all of our needs.  He was willing to work with us and made me feel really comfortable.  I’m not the type of person to rush into things so I met with four other photographers but I ended up going back to him.  Photographs and taking pictures are important to Dusty and I, and knowing we have a great photographer makes me feel really good.
