Mary + Brad's Wedding

I met Mary several years ago when I was coaching track and field at a local high school. She was a new teacher there and volunteered to help with the team. She was an excellent runner herself, having placed at state in high school and running for Columbia for a couple years. We hit it off instantly and became good friends. We even ran a marathon together in 2007. I remember when she first met Brad. It was a blind date and he showed up wearing a flowered shirt. She wasn't too sure about that. :) She gave him another chance and as it turns out, they were a pretty good match. They were engaged a year ago before he deployed to Kuwait and I got to photograph their engagement.

Last Saturday they were married and it was extra special for us because not only did we get to attend the wedding as guests, Mary and Brad were getting married at the church where Dave and I met and getting married on the 11th anniversary of the day we started dating.

Congratulations you two. We love you.
