The Bride And Groom
February 5th, 2008 @ 10:26 am by Mrs. Onion
After we saw each other for the first time back at the inn, we (Daria, Andy, Wes, Mr. Onion and I) piled into Daria’s car and headed over to UVM to take some photos of just the bride and groom before our wedding party photos. The campus is beautiful — there is some great old architecture and a lovely fountain. We had a really nice backdrop for our photos.
Can’t you just see how much we love each other?!
Here is the great angle I was talking about. Andy was actually on his stomach on the grass while Daria was off to the right shooting away. I love the texture of the building and the depth of field (the blur of the grass in the foreground).
Another great detail photo — I love that you can see my shoes and my short skirt.
This is the “newspaper announcement” photo. Every couple needs a proper portrait.
Then we did a little bit of walking to the center of campus.
I love the composition and the energy of this photo — Mr. Onion looking at me…me looking at Daria.
Great composition again with the fountain blurred in the foreground.
I was thrilled Daria caught this expression — this is my “man I love you” look that I give Mr. Onion. I knew I did it but I never saw myself — she caught me “in the act” as it were.
This is a nice portrait — great shot of the earrings my grandma gave me and her pin I wore in my hair too.
One of the few times Daria got Wes Jones in action
This is actually the only picture of us hugging all day. It was so nice to just take a deep breath and hang onto each other for a moment.
A gem — I am 5’3/4″ and Mr. Onion is 5’11″ — I was wearing 3 inch heels and I STILL had to stand on a fountain!
Great “in motion” photo. I still can’t believe I just hopped off that fountain in my heels. But Mr. Onion caught me safely.
And before we headed back to the inn to take our wedding party and family photos Daria got a great photo of my beautiful bouquet of white bouvardia, ranunculus, waxflower and green hydrangea.

So BEAUTIFUL! You guys look great and so happy together! I just love that picture of you standing up on the fountain and bending down to kiss him.
you and your husband are sooo cute! I definitely see the LOOOVE!
Love the pic of you hopping off the fountain, adorable! And what kinds of flowers were in your gorgeous bouquet?
Thanks ladies — I’m glad you like them! It’s nice that our love really comes across in the photos — I can’t help but smile just thinking about the day.
Buckeye — I’ve asked Bee to update the post with the kinds of flowers in my bouquet. In the meantime you can learn more about all the flowers from our wedding as we were featured on our florist’s website: http://tinyurl.com/yrpq6m
You look lovely! That photo of you kissing kim from the fountain stoop is priceless. 
Aww, I can feel the love in these pictures! I love 1 and 2- they’re so sweet!
hi Mrs. Onion… I had to comment and say that you guys look like models for a magazine or something. And I constantly drool over your wedding dress!! What a fantastic way to show off great legs and ankles… and of course, gorgeous shoes! If I have a recommittment ceremony (the plan of every post-wedding Mrs. who is still addicted to weddingbee, of course) I would very strongly lean towards a dress VERY similar to yours!!!
SO GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!
Yes, it really is so apparent how much you guys love each other! Fabulous pictures!!!
I love these. The “Man I love you” shot is priceless!
very lovely and cute! love it!!
your photographer did a great job. how long did you allot for the preceremony pictures since you had to drive to a different location? would you mind sending your special day’s schedule…. thanks! i loved how you’re sharing your special day with us.

Lovely. The one of you jumping off the fountain…wow. You guys just absolutely glow.
It is so obvious from your photos how in love you are! What an inspiration:)
I know I’ve said it a hundred times, but you truly have some of the most beautiful wedding pictures I’ve ever seen!
You have the most incredible wedding pictures! It’s such an honor to see them from beginning to end!
I didn’t like the short dress at all at first, but now I really think… it’s pretty awesome.
wah! you two are so picture perfect. you’re not models? =)
you guys are too sweet! no, we are not models although i wouldn’t complain if we ended up in a wedding magazine! how cool would that be to show our kids some day?!

Very fun pictures!
