A little background here…
Candice Davis was a national champion collage track star, and Brian Price played professional football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and several other pro teams. When we walked in on the scene, the women were well underway and the men were sacked out! We laughed at the contrast.
The day was gaining momentum and when most of the ladies were ready, Candice looked at me and said “Patrick, take this shot…” then turned to one of her bride’s maids and said “Carmelita! Come over here, I want a shot with you.”
They looked at the camera and with a big smile, Candice looked at me, pointed at her friend and said, “This is the fastest woman in the world! I mean it, she is the fastest woman in the world! This is Carmelita Jeter.” She was not kidding, Carmelita was and is the fastest woman in the world and she was standing right there in front of me. The place was full of world-class athletes that had come into town to celebrate this special occasion with Candice & Brian.
The Service and party…
The wedding ceremony went off without a hitch and while that was going on, our photojournalist slipped over to photograph the Westin Book Cadillac’s beautiful reception room and the reception details. Emerald City Designs did a fantastic job on the room.
The service was so pretty and everyone had a great time. I loved watching the families enjoy this special day with the couple. Cocktails followed while the couple took some family photos and the party was underway. When the couple was introduced into the room full of guests literally exploded into applause. We had a great time and the energy level was through the roof. Check out the photo of Candace in mid air with the kids on the dance floor making their moves. It is one of our favorites from the season.
They danced and played until everyone was tired and went home or, in a lot of cases, jumped on planes and headed for their next workout. On a side note, it has been fun to watch Candice excel in her career as a news caster on Chanel 4 in Detroit. We love to watch the continued success of our clients.
Looking forward…
We can’t wait for our next Book Cadillac wedding! In your journey to see more great wedding photography from The Book Cadillac, check out Joslyn and Marc’s wedding here.
