Capture His First Glimpse

November 14th, 2008 @ 11:02 am by Mrs. Espresso

I’m so thrilled that Sandra captured Mr. E’s expression when he saw me for the first time. These photos are definitely on my list of favorites. And not just because they’re of my sexy husband (Yay! Husband!), but because they make me feel all silly and girly. I want to show strangers on the street and say, “SEE! This is the man I married! I love him! And look how he’s looking at me!”

I never would have forgotten this moment, but I’m so happy I have these photos to look back on… everyday. :)

If you had to choose a photo of your husband as your favorite, at what point in your wedding was it taken?

That is super cute! Like the girl from 27 dresses, my favourite part of the wedding ceremony is when the groom looks at the bride for the first time… awww :)

The first pic is classic! I’m definitely telling my photographer this is a must-have shot. The genuine emotion captured is so raw in a beautifully vulnerable way. Congrats to you and your hubby :)

How adorable! My two favorite pictures of my husband are one where he is walking up the aisle before the ceremony looking so happy. And the other when he first sees me. There are actually two pictures, taken within seconds of each other. One where he looks very serious and the next where he is smiling from ear to ear looking at me. :Sigh: Such a wonderful memory captured on film.

My favorite is just after the wedding, while the photographer was waiting for us at the car, I was running upstairs to get another headpiece, and he was standing in the doorway of his parents’ house…holding my bouquet.

so cute! there were some of my husband looking scared to death when I was walking up the aisle, a couple when he was waiting to see me for the first moment and he looks like he’s like, where is she??? nervous and excited…but my favorite is one of him leaning up against the wall by himself back from everyone, watching me and my father dance. I just love it!

I. LOVE. These. Pictures.

I can only hope that Mr. Powder Puff looks half as thrilled when I’m heading down the aisle!

You’re a lucky girl!!

Thank- you all so much! You don’t know how much I love reading your comments!

@Starry-Eyed Barefoot Bride: he gets that all the time! But hey- I’m not complaining ;) And you definitely just boosted his ego when I told him what you said :)
@MM: awhh- I really like that expression
@Mrs. Green Tea: hahaha I’m always laughing after I read your comments. Thank- you so much for your compliments- and thank- you for saying you could smell the trees!! :)
@dreambml: awhh!
@Miss Powder Puff: Oh he will! And I can’t wait till the day I see those pictures!
