I always walk away from a wedding with a cute story or two.  I’m recalling two little boys from Saturday.

At one point, I was trying to get a requested group shot of 18 people and decided that one of these two brothers, Bradly, just wasn’t in a good spot.  
I knelt down beside him and said in my nicest voice “Sorry, I know I’m a BIG pain in the butt, but could you please stand over there?”

His reply (and keep in mind, he’s eight years old) was “No you’re not, you’re just doing your job … … which just happens to be being a pain in the butt!”.  Very cute.

When I want to get a laugh or reaction, I sometimes say something silly.  On Saturday, without skipping a beat, these guys were right there outdoing my silliness on every level, with the whole group cracking up.  Thanks guys, you made my job easier.  Being a pain in the butt can be quite exhausting.

The next shot is from Friday.  Here’s the bride, Bonnie – an absolute ball of fun and energy.  The bridal party was mingling after the ceremony and, upon discovering what the guys had hidden inside their jackets, she decided to join them.
