jeanette & brandon :: 09.26.09


Jeanette and Brandon are the cutest, sweetest couple. The amount of love they have for each other was astounding, not to mention their wonderful families surrounding and helping. This day was truly something special.
Don’t feel like scrolling? Slideshow is located at http://shannonleeimages.com/jeanette-brandon but isn’t up just yet! Until it is (in the next few days) try not to wear yourself out scrolling!

Jeanette’s dress was absolutely STUNNING! I couldn’t stop photographing it.




Time to get ready!





Time for the first look! Brandon was SO excited. I had to keep telling him not to turn around. I just love the look on his face here. He can’t wait to see his beautiful bride. Can you blame him?


Off to take pictures!


The girls.

The flowers were SO beautiful. Jeanette and Brandon had a lot of callalily themes throughout there day. Callalilies are my favorite flower too.. so maybe I’m a bit biased.

The boys.



Jeanette, Brandon and I snuck off to capture photos of just the two of them.




It was SO HOT! So hot, I was fogging up my viewfinder. Jeanette and Brandon did such a great job of pretending it wasn’t. They look so fabulous!










Time to get married! I caught one of the groomsmen alone his date :)



They had the cutest guests! I just loved this family of three girls. They make my photos look good :)



Brandon waiting for his beautiful bride!


I almost missed this photo because when he started singing, his voice was so beautiful I thought it was a recording. I’ve never heard anything like it.






They did it! Just Married!

Time to party!





Quite possibly the most photogenic guests ever.




Time for the first dance. So sweet…

I just love how all the girls are watching them. Reminds me of when I was a little girl at weddings and how mesmerized I was of the bride.

During the dollar dance, instead of money, they played a prank on Brandon and brought him baby clothes! Ha. Love it.

Then some of the guests played other pranks on Brandon…. his old roommate started break dancing with him! Brandon nervously laughing, looked at his bride hoping that she didn’t think it was his idea.

This crowd knew how to dance and wasn’t afraid to show it! They were also one of the most warm-hearted, kind, wonderful group of people I’ve ever been around.


Thanks again SOO much you two! I can’t wait to see what you think of your photos!
