The WACKYBOOTH!!! | Susie + Brian’s wedding

Typically when taking photos at a wedding reception I capture the first dances, toasts, cake cutting, and more dance shots. But honestly how many times can you look at sweaty drunk dancing photos before you strangle yourself! It gets old REAL fast! The WACKYBOOTH is a great way to get fun photos of ALL your guests that attend your wedding. Its kid friendly, family friendly, pregnant friendly, grandparent friendly, drunk friendly, food friendly, and most of all FUN friendly! So if you’d like people to not only have a blast at your wedding, but remember it FOR-EV-ER, the WACKYBOOTH in a must have!

So I had the pleasure of setting up and working the WACKYBOOTH at Susie and Brian’s wedding at the Doubletree Hotel in Palm Beach Gardens. In a nutshell the WACKYBOOTH is a super crazy version of an old school photo booth, but instead of a booth to hop into to take photos we setup a mini studio and capture all your guests doing wacky things so you’re bound to wet yourself! Once the reception started the guests were a little hesitant on making their way into the WACKYBOOTH but once the first two ladies (shown below in the first photo) were in having a blast making faces etc….people were lined up to “Get Their Wacky On”!

ATTENTION! If you attended Susie & Brian’s wedding, CLICK HERE to view all the WACKYBOOTH photos!

I said JUMP….they said HOW HIGH!

I said “Bring Your Wacky On” not “Bring Your Horny On”!!!

These two lovely ladies below weren’t shy in the least, they had about 50 different wacky ideas all of their own.

Of course kids need no instruction, they just get plain ‘WACKY” all the time!

I shot Ana and Gabriel ’s wedding last year.  What an awesome couple in love and they were in love with the “WACKYBOOTH”.

There were way to many dudes in this photo, I’m just sayin!

Susie’s parents surprised us all.  What happens in the “WACKYBOOTH” stays in the “WACKYBOOTH”.  At least until I blogged about it!

I know what your thinking!!!! You can’t take your eyes off her drink, huh?

The “WACKYBOOTH” is family friendly!

Got M&M’s!

Proof that Doubletree chiefs are down for a goodtime!

Bottoms up gentlemen!

Congrats to this lovely couple as they are engaged and tying the knot soon!

Home Run Hit! | Susie + Brian’s Wedding

Susie and Brian’s wedding came and went, but it was a “Home Run Hit” celebration of two “Die Hard” Yankee fans uniting as one. They both are simple people that don’t attract a lot of attention, but the one thing they aren’t afraid to tell the world is that they are both passionate Yankee fans!  You can view their engagement session that we shot at the Square Grouper Tiki Bar at Castaways Marina in Jupiter.

The ceremony and reception was held at the Doubletree Hotel in Palm Beach Gardens and with the help of their wonderful staff, it was flawless!

I kept all my fingers and toes crossed that the fire sprinkler wouldn’t go off while snapping this photo!

Beautiful weather, happy couple in love, and no boogies in nose!

Since the heat index felt like it was 104 degrees, we decided to go inside the Doubletree Hotel & Executive Meeting Center for the bride and groom portraits.

We started off at the Square Grouper Tiki Bar at Castaways Marina for the first part of the engagement shoot. Susie and Brian enjoyed a few relaxed portraits, a couple of beers, and watching boats pass by in the waterway. This place is a needle in a hay stack if you ask me!

After meeting with this wonderful couple, I have connected with them on facebook, which is a great way to keep in touch with clients and get to know them.

There are three things that Susie and Brian live for in life: The Yankees, their dog Joba, and each other!
