Gavin and Rachel
Gavin and Rachel's Wedding is just two weeks away. Everyone is getting excited. There will be family there from Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Missouri, Georgia, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas. There have been lots of preparations but everything is in order. We are leaving this afternoon for Keene, Texas to take Gavin and Rachel a washer and dryer. We purchased the set for them when some dear friends of ours were moving to Oregon.
Last fall Gina and I took Gavin and Rachel's engagement photos. We went to Janssen Park here in Mena and tried our hand at being professional photographers. Gina would work with them on posing and placement and then we would both take photos. The two camera system worked great. With slightly different angles and more photos to choose from I think that we got better pictures than if just one of us was photographing.
The old police car is a 1939 Dodge that the city bought from my Dad in the 80's and outfitted as a police car to use in parades, and as an attraction. The car, affectionately known as "Flossie" by the local cops, was used in the movie "The Pardon" that chronicles the story of Toni Jo Henry; the first woman to be executed in the state of Louisana.
We had a great time taking the photos, and I think that the photos show that the kids enjoyed themselves.
Thanks for stopping by! I love the photos. The one of the groom on his knee in front of the water is beautiful. Congrats! Have a great weekend. :)

ReplyDeleteGood job done on the photos.
Congratulations! I hope you have many wonderful memories together. BTW, Gavin is the name of the hero in my novel, Highland Sanctuary. It's the sequel to my debut novel, Highland Blessings, which just released this month. Not too many Gavins in the world.
ReplyDeleteFantastic pictures! The one where they lean on the fence, looking at each other, is my favorite, so much love displayed there.
ReplyDeleteSafe trip and wishing Rachel and Gavin all the best!
