The Adventure of The Bridal Photos





Meagan scheduled her bridal photos only to find out that she had conjunctivitis and that they would have to be postponed. Once her eye healed they were scheduled again, until it rained. Finally the day came to get her bridals done. It was a beautiful day. As Meagan and I were getting out of the car at Thanksgiving Point I said, "I wonder what will happen today. Life always seems to be an adventure." Little did I know how much of an adventure it would be.
Her bridals were taken at the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point. It was so gorgeous with all the beautiful tulips in bloom. There were acres and acres of beautiful grounds and flowers. The photographers took hundred's of pictures. They were so creative, and Meagan looked gorgeous. After taking a few pictures Meagan started looking pale, and said she might pass out. I was worried I had tied the back corset part of her dress too tight , and that we might have an episode similar to Keira Knightley on Pirates of the Carribean if I didn't loosen it. I quickly loosed the back ties, and we got her some water to drink. She said she felt better so we continued on.
For quite awhile things were going great. All of a sudden in the middle of a photo Meagan said, "I really don't feel well," and started throwing up. We told her to lean forward to miss her dress, and we held her hair back. Needless to say, the flowers got extra nutrition that day. We thought that would be the end of the bridal photos, but Meagan felt so much better and wanted to continue.

Life may be an adventure sometimes, but if you stick with it, the outcome is beautiful!
