Kathy and Bill’s wedding at the Detroit Zoo May 24th, 2008. www.wallyspicephotography.com

Saturday May 24th was a beautiful, exciting and very memorable day for the wedding for Kathy and Bill at the Detroit Zoo.  The girls got ready at her parents home close by and then headed to meet Bill and the guys at the zoo.  It was a record breaking busy day for them and there were lots of people enjoying the zoo and the great weather.  We climbed into a tram and headed for sights in the main part of the zoo for our romantics and relaxed fun photography.  Family and the kids also had a great time. We visited the arctic ring of life, seals and the polar bear outside, the giraffes, and the lions and tigers.  Then we headed back to the Interpretive gallery to get ready for the ceremony scheduled for 6PM at the bear fountain.

There was a little delay due to an incident elsewhere at the in the zoo, but all was fine. The ceremony was beautiful and everyone enjoyed it – we had some more fun photography by the fountain with the family and wedding party groups and headed back for the reception.  It is always so great to see our slide show in the theater and everyone enjoyed this.

Needless to say – we all had a “roaring” good time!!!

This is a flash high paced slide show made form the best of the images shown at the slide show at the zoo, plus some that I added now that we could really see everything. The images were gorgeous – because we had such a  gorgeous couple, family, location etc to work with.  This link is to my collection of wedding ANIMOTO videos on my site (My “widget”)

 Julie photographed the family of Jackie and Scott, with their darling new baby and her parents, and sister.They were our “Sunflower” wedding back in 2004 and their album designs are still on our wedding album menu tab.  We love photographing the growing families of our bridal couples as the years go by.

From April 23rd to May 5th I was fortunate enough to vist my daughter Tracy, her husband Rick and my darling little 18 month old grandson Gunther in Alaska.  It is so hard being so far away and I just had to find the time to visit.  The best part was getting to know little Gunther – he was so expressive and cuddly – beyond adorable and cute!  It is so nice to see him so at home in their gorgeous surroundings in the mountains – what a great place for a little boy to grow up.

I actually did have my laptop and was able to keep up with e-mails and get some work done.  I was able to work on a few album designs on the airplane.

Tracy has a lot of the best of our individual images on her Flickr site at:

These are just a few – there are too many to post here – needless to say I had a great time and loved every minute.

Happy Mothers day to all the mothers out there.  Especially to my 2 daughters.  Julie who works hard with me is a great mom to her 2 boys Aaron and Steven ages 12 and almost 14.  Tracy is a terrific mom up in Alaska to her darling little guy Gunther. She is a nurse in Anchorage and has her hands full.

This mom is proud of her 2 “Mom” daughters!

Tracy – also a Happy Birthday May18th!
