the Procession Begins

2/5/2023

Everyone rose, and turned to look...

...as Nami led the way into the cathedral...

Rex and Bianca proudly watched their daughter as she approached...

But the children had been instructed to ignore the guests...especially their parents...

..and keep their gaze focussed on the Bishop at the front.

The perspective is perfect. It’s an amazing setup. Once again you’ve posed them all so naturally and the entire scene is fabulous.

Thank you! It was an amazing experience, but it came with a lot of challenges. The set was 5 x 8', and elevated at my waist level, so it was really hard to reach into the middle to pose the dolls. I'd do my best, then we'd light the candles, I'd take a bunch of photos, then we'd blow out the candles, and do it all over again...over and over. Thankfully my new camera can handle low light, so I was able to shoot everything hand-held without a tripod. Otherwise this wedding sequence would not have bene possible in 'just' six hours.

The setting is magnificent!! The photos make you feel as though you are there with them in the cathedral. The children look so "grownup" and focused on their important roles.
This is such a lovely story.

Thanks! I'm glad you are enjoying it.

I LOVE that Gothic Cathedral, and couldn't believe it when Jess at Immersion Room suggested it. It was exactly what I would have imagined. I had spent hours online looking for a good background, and never saw anything even remotely close.

I love that the last photo centers on Baron's face as he waits with great anticipation for his Naomi to appear.

The children have clearly obeyed their instructions and are doing a wonderful job.

The officiant's robes are amazing. I am wondering if they were made especially for the wedding.

Thanks! At that point it is all about the groom anxiously waiting for his bride to appear.

No, the Bishop's robes were not made specially for the occasion. I didn't want him in his Wizard's robes (which Steve was wearing anyways) so borrowed the robe off of an old art doll Wizard. It is pretty much the same as his Wizard's robes but a different fabric. The mitre hat was made two years ago for the Bishop in Lawrence's coronation ceremony. However I did put edging on some trim for the Bishop to wear draped over his shoulders.
