Wedding Photos

I've been spending a lot of time the last couple of weeks going over photos from the wedding (all 948 of them!) -I'm trying to decide what to order for our still very blank walls. Those of you that know me well know that I am not an impulsive person (no way! really?). And there are lots of factors to consider - which pictures are "frame worthy" (I really love this picture, but . . . is it a hang-on-the-wall picture?), what size, in color or black and white, where will I hang these, the list goes on and on. Needless to say, I have yet to order any pictures, although, I have narrowed it down some.

In addition to choosing pictures, I'm also trying to pick out the frames. Right now I'm focusing on our bedroom (less formidible than the living room). Our bedroom is already fairly colorful and Jason and I thought that black and white photos in dark wood frames to match the bed and the dresser would look awesome. I have a fairly specific image in my head of the frames, simple, yet unique. The problem is that I have not had much luck finding what I'm imaging. Yesterday, Jason and I spotted a frame that we both loved and which was very close to what I've been envisioning; however, it was designed for a 4 x 6, which is definitely too small for hanging on the wall. While searching on one of my favorite websites last night, I found a guy who custom makes similar style frames. Jackpot! I wonder how long it will take me to have custom frames made (especially considering the recent financial uncertainty which has been thrown into the mix)...yikes!
Here are a couple of collages with some of my favorite images!

Once again, Steven and Sarah Spottswood did not disappoint. Words cannot express how much I love the photos, how perfectly they captured every aspect of the beautiful, wonderful day and provided us with memories to last a lifetime, and the amazing talent which they have. Jason and I were truly honored to have them capturing our special day!
